Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday sanctioned a financial help of Rs 15 lakh and a house to the wife of Kamlesh Tiwari, who was killed last week.
"Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to help the family of Kamlesh Tiwari has sanctioned an amount of Rs 15 lakh and a house in Mehmudabad area of Sitapur district," stated a press release.
