ASP Dausa Bajrang Singh while speaking to media persons informed that the accused has been identified as Bhupendra and a police case has been registered against him.

The incident has sparked outrage among people. Visuals from Dausa showed a large number of people protesting outside Rahuwas police station in the Lalsot area.

BJP attacks Gehlot govt

On Friday, BJP leader Kirodi Lal Meena reached the police station in the Lalsot area, where hundreds of protestors were gathered against the police and Gehlot government.

In a post on X, Meena wrote, "There is huge anger among the people over the incident of rape of a 4-year-old Dalit girl by a policeman in Lalsot. I have reached the spot to help the victim get justice to the innocent child. The police, which has become autocratic due to the incompetence of the Ashok Gehlot government, is not desisting from committing atrocities even on a sensitive occasion like elections."

Expressing anger over the issue, BJP spokesman Shehzad Poonawalla said, "Humanity has been shamed once again in Rajasthan's Dausa, where Priyanka Gandhi Vadra had recently gone. A four-year-old girl has been raped by a sub-inspector in the Rajasthan police. When the father goes to file a case at the police station, he is beaten up...Today even 'Rakshak' has become 'Bhakshak'"

Meanwhile, the investigation by the police department has been initiated.
