Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray has also taken grave note of the incident and is discussing it with concerned officials, while Leader of Opposition Devendra Fadnavis said he was "shocked" over the development.
Terming the incident as "sad and shocking", Home Minister Diip Walse-Patil said that the arrested accused would be given the most stringent punishment.
The incident was strongly condemned by Deputy Chairperson of Maharashtra Legislative Council Neelam Gorhe, Shiv Sena spokesperson Manisha Kayande, many women activists and commoners, with many demanding the immediate passing of the Shakti Act which proposes death penalty for rape.
The brutality of the crime was reminiscent of the 2012 Delhi Gang Rape where a paramecia student was sexually abused and brutally violated by six people on a moving bus.
