According to Jaipur Police, Neeraj Sharma’s death on July 3 was not the first attempt on her life.
Investigators say the accused and other conspirators had earlier planned to kill her outside her residence using a rented Mahindra Thar. Neeraj reportedly escaped that attempt after the vehicle failed to hit her.
Although she did not suspect her daughter, the incident reportedly frightened her enough to install CCTV cameras around her home for added security.
Police believe those cameras forced the accused to change their plan and choose a different location where surveillance would not interfere.

Government job and land became centre of dispute
The investigation suggests the family dispute revolved around a compassionate government appointment and valuable ancestral land.
After the death of Neeraj’s husband, Vijay Kumar Sharma, who worked as a Lower Division Clerk at the Rajasthan High Court, family members reportedly advised Neeraj to accept the compassionate appointment. Police say the decision was taken mainly to ensure financial support for her 16-year-old differently-abled son.
Investigators allege Ayushi was unhappy after not receiving the government job herself.
Police claim she later moved in with her paternal uncle, Mohan Swaroop, where discussions allegedly began about securing family property.
