Gujarat police on Saturday announced a reward of Rs 1 lakh for information leading to arrest of two people accused of gang-raping a 14-year-old girl in Vadodara, an official said.

The girl was raped on Thursday in the city's Navlakhi Compound area on Rajmahal Road when she was sitting with a male friend, a Raopura police station official said.

Vadodara police commissioner Anupam Singh Gehlot confirmed the Rs 1 lakh reward, adding that 200 personnel have been put on the job to nab the two accused.
