The family of Mohit Pandey, a businessman who died in police custody recently, met with Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday to express their grief and received assurances of full support from him.

The Chief Minister offered condolences and instructed officials to provide the victim's family with an ex gratia amount of Rs 10 lakh, housing, free education for the children, and access to various government schemes.

CM Yogi assured the family that those responsible would face strict consequences, promising that no culprit would be spared.

Mohit Pandey's mother, Tapeshwari Devi, along with his wife and children, visited the Chief Minister's official residence on Monday morning.

In response, the CM offered immediate financial support of ten lakh rupees and ordered that the family be granted all applicable benefits under government schemes, including housing and free education for the children.

After meeting with Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday, the family of the late businessman Mohit Pandey expressed a sense of relief.
