Daily revelations in the Ankita murder case are raising serious concerns about the existence of Resort and Spa culture in Uttrakhand. An organisation called Mahila Uttarjan has demanded the state government to
completely abolish spa and resort culture from the state.
Ankita used to tell her friends that the accused asked her to have a relationship with the customers of the resort. Ankita had a fight with the three boys over this matter. While fighting, Ankita snatched Pulkit's mobile and threw it in the canal. Ankita then got into a scuffle with the accused and the accused pushed
her into the canal.

A journalist Ashutosh Negi filed a police complaint against Vinod Arya, father of main accused Pulkit Arya, saying that he has threatened him over the phone that "I am Vinod Arya speaking, will also settle the case and you too".
The police are also going to register a case against Pulkit under the Gangster Act, for which the SIT has sought Pulkit's criminal record from Haridwar Police. After which complete information about the cases registered in Bahadrabad and Haridwar police stations is handed over to the SIT, so that gangster action can be initiated against the accused Pulkit.
