    A doctor and his friend were arrested while two juveniles were detained in connection with the acid attack on a 30-year old woman doctor here, police said Thursday.
     
    Arvind Yadav, a batch mate of the victim, along with his friend Vaibhav hatched the plan to throw acid on Amrita Kaur, police said.
     
    Police said Amrita had turned town Yadav's marriage proposal and got engaged to another man eight months ago.
