Woman calls police on husband after losing Instagram followers due to housework
A woman left her husband and filed a police complaint after blaming him for a drop in her Instagram follower count and alleging that the burden of household chores left her no time to make reels.
The woman, identified only as Nisha, was reportedly very active on Instagram and known for posting around two short reels a day. According to local media, tensions began when her husband, Vijendra, a resident of Uttar Pradesh state's Noida city, urged her to reduce the time she spent on social media and pay more attention to household responsibilities.
Nisha took a step back from her online activities to focus on domestic work, but held her husband responsible when she noticed she had lost two followers on her account. A heated argument ensued and she left her marital home to return to her parents' house in Pilkhuwa town in the state's Hapur district.
There, she filed a formal complaint against Vijendra at the women's police station in Hapur.
'My followers declined as I was kept busy washing utensils and cleaning of the house by my husband. I didn't get time to make reels,' Nisha told the police, according to Deccan Herald.
Speaking to The Independent, Aruna Rai, Station House Officer of Hapur Mahila Thana, confirmed that the matter was indeed brought to the police.
'Nisha had filed a complaint of harassment against her husband. When the husband presented his side, we stepped in to mediate and the couple were counselled,' Ms Rai said, adding that Nisha later withdrew her complaint following multiple counselling sessions.
The case was of great interest within the Hapur district, not just because of the unusual trigger, but also due to the fallout.
The couple had not been married long, Ms Rai confirmed, and local media reports say that the dispute has resulted in Vijendra losing his job. According to a report by News18, Vijendra is struggling to find work, attending interviews in various places.
While Nisha's complaint was withdrawn and the police have claimed that the matter has been resolved from a legal standpoint, the couple's personal relationship remains strained and the two are reportedly still living apart.
