The mob then descended on the man, dragged him to a butcher's shop where his genitals were brutally chopped off with a meat cleaver.
The man is being treated in hospital, where his condition is described as critical.
A witness told Indian Express: "No one went to help the man because they could see his penis on the ground and knew this was punishment for a sex crime.
"We have had a lot of intolerable offences against women in this country recently, with girls being raped, hung, and molested, and it's time it stopped.
"This sends out a very strong message to anyone like that - if you do it you will be punished."
But the police have called for those responsible to give themselves up.
A spokesman said: "People cannot take the law into your own hands.
"As deplorable as these crimes are, law and order has to be maintained, and not lynch justice. We ask those men who carried out this attack to hand themselves in before we find them."
