Adobe India CEO Naresh Gupta's son was kidnapped on Monday morning by two unidentified persons from outside his residence in Noida, a satellite township of Delhi.

The incident occurred at about 0815 hrs while three-year-old Anant was on his way to school from his affluent Sector 15-A residence, said the police.

A pre-nursery student of 'Lotus Valley School' situated on the Express Highway, Anant was with his maid when two youth riding a black motorcycle snatched him from her and fled the scene. 

Anant's mother Nidhi lodged an FIR at Sector 20 police station under section 364 of the IPC. Pandey said his family members are yet to receive any ransom demand from the abductors so far. 

Special Secretary (Home) Pramod Pandey said his maid servant Seema from whom the criminals allegedly 'snatched' away the child is being interrogated for clues. 

"Six police teams have been set up to rescue the boy. If required, help of the Special Task Force would be taken," Pandey said, adding that senior police officials had rushed to Noida and were supervising the operation. 

Meanwhile, the BJP and Congress have blamed the deteriorating law and order situation in Uttar Pradesh behind the kidnapping. 

"Criminals are running a parallel government and the Mulayam Singh Yadav administration is unable to control it," alleged state BJP president Keshri Nath Tripathi. 

"When the family members of personnel working in big companies are not safe in UP, how can the Samajwadi Party government claim they are turning the state into Uttam Pradesh," he observed. 

Congress spokesperson Akhilesh Pratap Singh said the abduction proves wrong, the tall claims of the state government about the law and order situation in UP.
