The body of a 25-year-old woman was found near Aurbindo College in south Delhi's Malviya Nagar on Friday, ANI reported. An iron rod was found near her body, DCP South Chandan Chowdhary said. The accused has been arrested, police said.

"An iron rod was found near her body. According to a preliminary investigation, the girl was attacked with a rod. Further investigation is in progress," DCP Chowdhary said.

The body was found in the park beneath a bench.

Delhi Commission for Women (DCW) chief Swati Maliwal said the law and order situation in Delhi was in turmoil.

"Two incidents took place today -- a girl was shot in Dabri and the second incident took place near Aurbindo College where another woman was beaten to death by an iron rod. I appeal to the Central govt to call a meeting regarding the safety of women in Delhi. DCW is taking cognisance of these incidents and we are issuing notices for the same," ANI quoted Maliwal as saying.
