He also mentioned the names of the two officials in the note, they said.
Police suspect that Sukhwinder poisoned his family before hanging himself.
The cause of the deaths will be clear after the post-mortem examination, they said.
Meanwhile, the autopsy was conducted in the Ambala City hospital and the bodies were handed over to relatives.
Deputy Superintendent of Police Joginder Singh said it seems five members of the family were strangled but the real reason of the death will be clear after the autopsy report arrives.
He said Sukhwinder is believed to have committed suicide by hanging himself in the house.
Jassi, one of the daughters of Sukhwinder, was a student of Class 3, while the other was studying in LKG.
On the complaint of a relative of Sukhwinder Singh, the Sadar police station in Ambala City has registered a case against the two people linked to an automobile dealer of Yamunanagar whose names were mentioned in the suicide note.
Police said both accused are being interrogated.
