The chief minister, who arrived at the victim's native Medawar Kala village here, spent about half an hour with the family speaking to male members outside the house and later went inside to meet her mother and express his condolences.
The chief minister also presented a cheque of Rs 20 lakhs to the parents of the girl.
While speaking to reporters, Yadav said that though the government has extended help to the family, their loss is immense and cannot be compensated.
"This is a gruesome incident...The country has come to know of it...There has not been any such case in the world...There is anger in the country over it and people are also showing it," Yadav said.
The chief minister also announced that a primary health centre (PHC) would be set up in the village for which land has been made available but denied that it would be named after the girl saying that there was no such provision under the law.
Appealing on behalf of the government and also Samajwadi Party for stern punishment to those guilty of the crime, Yadav said the paramedical student was the family's hope for better future but could not be saved.
