Rajya Sabha MP and former Delhi BJP President Vijay Goel today urged Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh to provide adequate compensation to the martyred cop Jagbir Singh's family.
In a letter to Rajnath Singh, Goel said, "I urge you that adequate compensation should be paid to the family of Jagbir Singh. This would help the bereaved family and go a long way in boosting the moral of all those brave cops who put their lives at risk to make Delhi safe for its citizens.
"I also urge you to give appropriate directions to the authorities concerned that atleast one member of the martyr's family should be immediately offered a suitable government job."
He also said that constable Narendra should also be rewarded appropriately for the brave act of reaching police station for help despite being shot.
