An FIR has been registered at Kavi Nagar police station. Meanwhile, District Magistrate Nidhi Kesarwani has put a ban on protests and demonstrations in collectorate premises without prior permission.

"From today, no political party or organisation can stage protest without written permission of additional district magistrate or city magistrate," a release from the district information office said.

A political slugfest is on in the state over the gangrape of a minor girl and her mother on the national highway in Bulandshahr district.
