Meerut, Nov 26: Muskan, who is currently lodged in Meerut jail for the alleged murder of her husband Saurabh Rajput, has given birth to a baby girl and the child has been named Radha.

Following the birth of the child, Saurabh’s family has demanded a DNA test to establish paternity.
The in-laws have raised questions about the circumstances surrounding the pregnancy and have formally requested authorities to conduct the test before recognizing the child as part of the family.
