All terror victims to get ₹5 lakh compensation
Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Tuesday approved a uniform compensation package of ₹5 lakh for civilian victims of attacks by terrorists and Maoists, and victims of cross-border firing. Earlier, victims of terror or Maoist-related violence were given ₹3 lakh. However, compensation will only be provided only if the government does not provide employment to any of the victims' family members.
