The police alleged that the siblings always fought over the ownership of their mother's house.
According to Hindustan Times, both Dumra and Chavria were married but did not live with their respective spouses.
Police said that last week, Dumra threatened his mother and sister and warned them if he did not get ownership of the house he would "teach them a lesson." He also wanted his sister to return to her husband and live there.
Chavria and her mother then approached the BKC police station and lodged a non-cognisable complaint (where police can arrest without a warrant) against him.
On Saturday morning, Dumra stabbed Chavria six times with a knife. The local residents alerted the police and the accused was nabbed within hours. Chavria was rushed to Bhabha hospital and her condition is now stable.
Dumra was arrested under section 307 of the Indian Penal Code for an attempt to murder.
