Police said the probe was initiated immediately after the complaint.
Mostakin Sardar, 19, has been arrested in connection with the incident, police officials said. Police said rape can't be confirmed until the post-mortem report comes.
The opposition Bharatiya Janata Party has lashed out at the government accusing police of not taking the complaint initially citing the accused's religion.
BJP IT Cell head Amit Malviya posted on X, "In another shocking incident in West Bengal, an 11 year old minor Hindu girl, is abducted, brutally raped and murdered, while she was returning back from tuition, in the Kripakhali area, under Kultali police station.

"Angry villagers attacked the Kultali PS, since they refused to take the complaint because the rapist(s) is apparently a Muslim and WB Police is reluctant to act, lest they upset Home Minister Mamata Banerjee. During Durga Puja, as West Bengal celebrates Devi Shakti, women and girls are unsafe. Unless Asuri Shaktis, at the helm of the State's affair, are not defeated, crimes against women will continue, unabated. Mamata Banerjee has to GO for women to be safe in Bengal."
