A 40-year-old man has been booked for allegedly raping his minor daughter at their residence in Porsa area for last two months, police said today.

The incident occurred last night after Giriraj Tomar, a habitual drinker, came home sloshed and allegedly raped his 10-year-old daughter.

"As the girl raised an alarm, her mother, grandfather, and grandmother came to her rescue and reported the matter to the police," said Porsa police station Inspector Sunil Kushwaha.

He said an FIR was registered against Tomar under relevant sections of IPC, following the medical examination of the girl at hospital.

"The girl's mother has told us that Tomar has been raping his daughter for last two months, but the family kept mum fearing social stigma. However, they approached police last night as they were moved by the plight of the girl," Kushwaha said.
 

Tomar, meanwhile, is absconding, he added.
