A 25-year-old woman allegedly died by suicide along with her two young children after jumping into a well following a domestic dispute in Maharashtra's Latur district. 

According to the information, the woman took the extreme step late on Sunday night due to prolonged family tension. All three were found dead on Monday afternoon.

The woman has been identified as Nikita Amardip Bhure (25). Police said she had been facing domestic problems for some time. On Sunday evening, the dispute between Nikita and her husband Amardip escalated and continued until midnight.
