According to police, the incident occurred around 1 pm at a hotel located on 60 Feet Road in the Farsh Bazar locality. The woman had reportedly checked into the hotel with a 22-year-old man.
Following an argument between the two inside the room, she allegedly jumped out of the window from the fourth floor.

Police confirmed that the incident occurred at Hotel Santosh Residency in Vishwas Nagar. Visuals from the location were also shared by ANI, showing the exterior of the hotel building from where the woman jumped.
Police officials from Farsh Bazar station stated:
“At around 1:00 pm, we received a call reporting that a woman had jumped off a hotel window. The incident occurred at Hotel Santosh Residency on 60 Feet Road. Following a quarrel, the woman allegedly jumped from the fourth floor in anger. She was immediately taken to a hospital and is currently under treatment.

In a separate incident in Central Delhi’s Paharganj area, a Turkmenistan national identified as Jeyhun allegedly injured himself outside White Glow Hotel after being denied a room due to lack of money.
According to police, the man had previously stayed at the hotel between January 20 and February 10. On February 11, he returned in an inebriated state and demanded accommodation.
When hotel staff refused, citing no room availability, he allegedly used a knife in his possession to inflict injuries on his throat. He was later provided medical assistance.
Police said the man appeared to be under the influence of an intoxicating substance at the time of the incident.
Delhi Police are investigating both incidents separately. Officials said appropriate legal action will be taken based on findings from CCTV footage, witness statements, and medical reports.
