Hardik was unemployed while Megha, who was working as a nurse, used to bear the household expenses. This led to frequent quarrels between the couple which resulted in the killing of her, police said in a statement. 

After killing Megha, Hardik sold some household items and escaped with the money. On information that he was fleeing by train, the railway police traced his location and was arrested at Nagda in Madhya Pradesh.
