Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan today announced an ex-gratia of Rs 15 lakh, a government job and land for the kin of CRPF jawan Omprakash Mardaniya, who died in the terrorist attack in Srinagar yesterday.

A total of 1,004 newly-recruited constables took part in the parade, led by Commander Subhash Vajpayee.
CRPF's Inspector General (IG) Ranjit Singh said, speaking on the occasion, that CRPF was constituted in Madhya Pradesh's Neemuch district in 1939.
