On hearing the gunshot, neighbors rushed to the hospital and informed the police.
Nem Singh’s wife had committed suicide 15 years ago, since then he started drinking excessively. He had even sold a large chunk of his agriculture land to get money because of his drinking habits.
His eldest son, Gaurav, used to oppose his father’s habit. Two years ago, Gaurav moved to Delhi with his wife.
Gaurav left behind his younger brother Saurabh, sister Nitesh and drunkard father.
SHO Praveen Kumar said when Nem Singh shot his daughter, Saurabh was not at home.
“We have arrested Singh and he has confessed to his crime. We have also recovered the country-made pistol used in the crime,” Solanki said.
