Five Days of Horror: NCW Seeks Answers and Strict Action in Sri Ganganagar Minor Gang Rape and Trafficking Case
New Delhi, 08 July 2026: The National Commission for Women has taken serious cognizance of the brutal gang-rape and trafficking of a 13-year-old minor girl in Sri Ganganagar, Rajasthan, and conducted a hearing before Hon’ble Chairperson of NCW, Smt. Vijaya Rahatkar.
The Commission observed that such an incident reflects serious administrative lapses, policing gaps, and inadequate monitoring mechanisms that allowed such criminal activities to continue. The Commission emphasised the need for effective coordination among all concerned agencies, including the Police, Medical Authorities and Forensic Agencies, to ensure a comprehensive and expeditious investigation. The Commission further directed that the chargesheet be prepared and submitted before the competent court within the stipulated timeline and that the trial be initiated without delay to ensure speedy delivery of justice to the survivor.
The Commission took note of the investigation conducted by the SIT, wherein 18 accused persons have reportedly been arrested so far, including hotel operators, managers, and other individuals allegedly involved in the crime. However, the Commission emphasised the need for the prompt arrest of the remaining accused persons and completion of the investigation in a time- bound manner.
