DGP, Law and Order, HS Dhillon met the family and announced Rs 20 lakh ex gratia to them; Rs 5 lakh in FD for daughter Dia besides treatment for her as she has an eye ailment. He also announced jobs for two members of the family in Punjab Police.

Members of the dera’s political wing gave five days to the police to nab the accused.
