In her complaint, Lata has blamed her live-in partner Balram for the fire.
She was rushed to a hospital where her condition was stated to be stable.
According to police, Lata, a mother of two, was in a live-in relationship with Balram, a taxi driver. They were living in Baghel.
Balram, however, claimed that he was not responsible for the fire and that the cot caught fire accidentally.
Police said investigations were on and her neighbours and relatives too were being questioned.
