Nathu Prasad Gupta, the girl's father, rescued her with the help of the Gujarat Police. Acting on a tip-off, Gupta himself went to Gujarat and rescued his daughter.

Lalita was kidnapped on July 9, 2012 from her house by two unidentified persons who came on a motorcycle. They tied her mouth and whisked her away.

According to the girl's parents, five people including Joginder Yadav of Hukai VDC-5 and Binod Yadav of Bodawar VDC-7, Rupandehi district were involved in the abduction of their daughter. They are planning to file a case against them at the District Court.
