The accident had been in the news and was termed as being "orchestrated" at the behest of BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar, her alleged rapist.
After the case was handed over to CBI, the investigating agency had registered FIR against Sengar and others in the case.
Following the registration of FIR, the BJP sacked Sengar from the party.
The woman had alleged that in 2017, she was raped by BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar at his home.
