In a one-line suicide note written in Hindi, Dinesh Jain (25) said, “I killed them, no body should be blamed.”

Police is clueless about the motive behind the incident.

Jain used to stay in a third floor one BHK flat with his wife Monica (22), four year old daughter Harsha, nine-month-old daughter Toshika, his parents and his elder brother and his family.

The family jointly owned two grocery shops in the area and the business was doing well, police said.

Residents of the building, where the family stayed, said that they cannot understand what may have driven the family to enter into a suicide pact as they never had any dispute.

Jain and his family were alone when the incident happened.
