Yadav, who is being hailed on social media for taking action against the minister's son, told news channels on Wednesday that she had put in her papers.
"I have resigned because I did not receive support from my superior officers. I was only doing my duty as a constable. It's the fault of our system that these people (like the minister's son) think they are VVIPs (very very important persons)," she said.
However, a senior police official here denied that she has resigned.
