"I am terribly shocked to know about the details of the rape of a 5-year-old child in Delhi. She should be shifted to AIIMS immediately," she said on micro-blogging site Twitter.
The girl, who was brutally raped and her organs mutilated, was shifted to AIIMS in the evening.
The BJP leader lamented that nothing much seems to have changed since the December 16 gangrape case and the police are still failing to protect women in the capital.
"I had thought that after Damini case, thinking will change. Unfortunately, the situation has worsened. I see an ACP slapping a young girl protesting against this. These policemen are incapable of protecting women. Instead they beat them up," Swaraj said.
"This ACP should be ashamed of his uniform," Swaraj said.
In the Delhi gangrape case, there were charges that the PCR van arrived late and policemen were undecided about which hospital the victim should be rushed to.
