Delhi Man Attacked by Wife in Drunken Argument, Rushed to Hospital for Emergency Care

A man from Bihar, recently relocated to Delhi, is recovering in Safdarjung Hospital after a violent incident in which his wife allegedly attacked him following a heated argument. The incident, reported to the police on the night of October 31, took place in the Roop Nagar area, where the couple had been living since moving to Delhi a few months prior.

According to officials, the man, who works as a helper at a paying guest facility in Shakti Nagar, reportedly came home intoxicated on the night of the altercation. This led to an argument with his wife, during which she allegedly left the house abruptly. However, later that night, she is reported to have returned with a sharp object and attacked her husband, inflicting a severe injury before fleeing the scene.

Details of the Incident and Response

Emergency responders first transported the injured man to Bara Hindu Rao Hospital, where he received initial treatment before being shifted to Safdarjung Hospital. Hospital officials have confirmed that the man is currently stable and out of immediate danger. The police, who recorded the victim’s statement on Saturday, revealed that both husband and wife had been married twice before, making this the third marriage for each.

Authorities are actively searching for the accused woman, who is now on the run. The police are investigating the background of the couple, looking into any prior incidents of conflict, and following all leads in an effort to locate her.

Broader Context and Social Reflections

This incident sheds light on the complexities and stresses that can emerge in relationships, particularly in new marriages involving individuals with past marital experiences. Domestic disputes, particularly where alcohol is involved, can escalate, leading to severe consequences.

The case serves as a reminder of the importance of mental health resources, conflict resolution support, and community awareness in helping couples navigate difficulties in relationships. Efforts by the authorities to locate the suspect and bring clarity to the incident continue, while the community expresses concerns over rising domestic violence cases and the need for prevention.

The ongoing investigation highlights a broader commitment by law enforcement to address domestic issues and offer protection to those affected by such incidents.
