Give Rs.1 crore to dead constable's family: AAP to Delhi LG
AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal Tuesday requested Delhi Lt. Governor Najeeb Jung to give Rs.1 crore as compensation to the family of a police constable who was run over by a car while on duty in the capital.
Constable Manna Ram was run over by a car Saturday evening when he tried to stop it from entering a 'no entry zone' in west Delhi. The government had earlier announced Rs.10 lakh compensation to his family.
The former Delhi chief minister pleaded in a letter to Jung that Manna Ram's family should be given an ex-gratia of Rs.1 crore.
He also said that when the Aam Aadmi Party government was in office in Delhi, it had given Rs.1 crore to the family of a constable killed by the water mafia while on duty.
