DGP Kapil Garg, meanwhile, said that Rajasthan is not 'rapistan' and police did not suppress the news of the crime because of elections.

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) attacked Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot who holds the home department for conspiring to suppress the brutal crime given the elections in the region.

Madan Lal Saini, Rajasthan BJP president, said that Ashok Gehlot must take responsibility for the crime and failure of the police to act promptly.
