A total of Rs 1.35 crore along with other departmental benefits will be extended to the family of the constable, according to a press release.

The accused fled after the incident and are being searched for, police said.

The police have detained eight persons in connection with the incident.

Main accused has been identified as Praveen Garasia and efforts are being made to nab him, SP Sirohi Anil Kumar said.

Former chief minister Ashok Gehlot expressed grief over the incident and demanded the arrest of the accused.

“Tribute to constable Niranjan Singh who laid down his life in Swarupganj of Sirohi while performing duty. Our sympathies are with his family in this hour of grief. The state government should arrest the murderers and ensure strictest action,” he posted on X.

His body was placed in the mortuary of the district hospital for post mortem.
