The Haryana government on Wednesday released Rs 50 lakh as financial assistance to the family of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) Assistant Sub-Inspector Naresh Kumar, who was killed in an ambush by Maoists in Sukma district of Chhattisgarh on Monday.
Kumar, a resident of Jainpur Tikaula village in Sonipat district, was killed in the attack along with 24 other CRPF troopers.
