A school lecturer set herself on fire along with her three-year-old daughter in Rajasthan's Jodhpur on Friday, media reports said.

While her daughter, Yashasvi, died on the spot, the mother, Sanju Bishnoi, died during treatment on Saturday morning.

An alleged suicide note has been found that claimed Sanju was being harassed by her husband and in-laws for dowry.

On Friday afternoon, Sanju came back from her school, sat on a chair, and poured petrol on herself as well as her daughter before setting themselves on fire at their home in Sarnada village.

Neither the husband nor her in-laws were present in the house when the incident occurred.

The police and the family were informed after neighbours saw smoke rising from the house.

By the time the police reached the spot, nothing much was left to be saved.

Sanju's death on Saturday triggered a dispute between her parents and her in-laws over her body.

Following an autopsy, the body was handed over to the parents, and the mother and daughter were cremated together.

The woman's parents have accused their son-in-law, Dilip Bishnoi, his mother, and father of harassing their daughter and inciting her to die by suicide.

An FIR has been filed against the husband and the in-laws. In the complaint, her father, Omaram Bishnoi, has filed a case of harassment and abetment to suicide against his son-in-law.

The police have collected evidence from the spot with the help of the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) team, and during their investigation, found a suicide note. Her mobile phone has also been seized.

In her suicide note, the woman has accused her husband, mother-in-law, father-in-law and sister-in-law of harassment.

She has also accused a man named Ganpat Singh in her note of harassment.
