She came to limelight when, she lodged a complaint against KPS Gill, who was at that time Director General of Police, Punjab, that he had molested her modesty by "patting" her "posterior" in an intoxicated state, during a party hosted on 18 July 1988 at the Chandigarh residence of then Punjab Financial Commissioner (Home) S L Kapoor. She was at that time working as the Special Secretary, Finance as an I.A.S. officer. This case, that is, Rupen Deol Bajaj vs KPS Gill case, was one of the most publicized, high-profile legal cases and remained in media limelight for many years.
