Bhopal: Enraged over the alleged rape of a three-year-old girl in a private school in Bhopal, members of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) along with other Hindu organisations staged a protest on Thursday.
Around 200-300 protesters assembled outside the school located near Bhadbhada Dam, under Kamla Nagar police station demanding that the school be bulldozed.
The protestors burned the effigy of the accused teacher and damaged the boundary wall of the school.

There is a heavy deployment of police personnel near the school and some areas have been cordoned off with heavy barricading by the police.
Chief Minister Mohan Yadav has also expressed shock over the incident and urged Madhya Pradesh High Court Chief Justice to conduct the trial in the case in a fast track court and give rigorous punishment to the culprit.
