The health condition of the Ayodhya rape survivor remains stable as she continues treatment at a government hospital in Lucknow, officials confirmed on Tuesday.

The 12-year-old girl was admitted to Queen Mary Hospital’s obstetrics and gynecology department at King George's Medical University (KGMU) on Monday.

Dr. Sudhir Singh, KGMU spokesperson, assured that the girl is stable and receiving treatment under specialist care with positive progress.

District’s Chief Medical Officer Sanjay Jain stated she was referred to KGMU because the women’s hospital in Ayodhya lacked adequate treatment facilities.

UP Police arrested Moid Khan and Raju Khan on July 30, accusing them of raping and recording the minor’s assault two months ago, discovered during a medical check-up.

Political tensions escalated as BJP leaders, including Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, linked prime accused Moid Khan to the Samajwadi Party, prompting Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav to accuse BJP of defaming his party.
