According to reports, the girl -- a vegetable vendor's daughter who is studying in class 9 -- was shot allegedly after she spurned the boy's relationship offer. The girl is undergoing treatment. Doctors said her condition is critical. Police said that the gunman had been identified and would be nabbed soon.
The shocking crime has thrown up a major challenge for the new dispensation in Bihar, with many wondering whether the state was once again returning to lawlessness under the Janata Dal (United)-Rashtriya Janata Dal government.
