Raichur Deputy Commissioner Nitish K. has told officials to take action to release compensation to family members of victims of atrocity, as the majority of them don’t even know that they are entitled to compensation according to the rules of the government of Karnataka.
Chairing the District Level Awareness and Monitoring Committee for Control of Atrocities against Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes in Raichur on October 4, the DC said that the family members of victims who belong to the SC and ST community are entitled to compensation and a government job on proving atrocities. “Officers should approach such families and collect the required documents to complete the necessary legal formalities, and also draw the attention of committee members if there is any delay in submitting the charge sheet by the jurisdictional police for further action,” he added.
