Reactions of several leaders on the horrific incident 

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal reacted on the incident and urged the Lieutenant Governor to take action in the matter.

दिल्ली में खुलेआम एक नाबालिग बच्ची की बेरहमी से हत्या कर दी जाती है। ये बेहद दुखद और दुर्भाग्यपूर्ण है। अपराधी बेख़ौफ़ हो गए हैं, पुलिस का कोई डर ही नहीं है।

LG साहब, क़ानून व्यवस्था आपकी ज़िम्मेदारी है, कुछ कीजिए। दिल्ली के लोगों की सुरक्षा सबसे महत्वपूर्ण है। https://t.co/3i1eLoYYqv — Arvind Kejriwal (@ArvindKejriwal) May 29, 2023

"My soul trembled after looking at this dreadful act. I want to remind Delhi LG that the Constitution has given him the responsibility of protecting the people of Delhi. But he spends most of his time in creating roadblocks for Arvind Kejriwal government. I request the LG with folded hands to pay attention to the safety of the women of Delhi. Today women are not at all safe in Delhi," she said on Twitter.

मैं @LtGovDelhi को याद दिलाना चाहती हूँ कि संविधान ने उन्हें दिल्ली के लोगों की सुरक्षा की ज़िम्मेदारी दी है। परंतु वे अपना सारा समय @ArvindKejriwal के काम रोकने में लगाते हैं।

मेरा LG साहब से हाथ जोड़ कर निवेदन है कि दिल्ली की महिलाओं की… https://t.co/1ce5x12uX2 — Atishi (@AtishiAAP) May 29, 2023

"If such a barbaric attack had happened on one's sister or daughter, would these people have gone on like this? Animals are not just them, but everyone," he said in a tweet.
