The Impressive TimesNew Delhi : In recognition of the dedication and sacrifices of Delhi Police personnel who sustained injuries while maintaining law and order during various law & order arrangements in 2026, Anurag Kumar, IPS, Commissioner of Police, Delhi, has approved financial assistance for the injured personnel.
As per the approved scheme, financial assistance of ₹25,000 will be provided to personnel who sustained grievous injuries, while those who suffered other serious injuries will receive ₹15,000. The assistance will be extended from the Delhi Police Welfare Society Fund. Additionally, District DCPs may forward proposals for enhanced financial assistance in deserving special cases.
Over 250 police personnel sustained injuries while performing their duties during various law and order arrangements in 2026. Recognising their commitment and dedication, Delhi Police has reiterated its resolve to ensure their welfare, care and support.
The welfare and well-being of police personnel who sustain injuries while performing their duties selflessly have always been a top priority for Delhi Police. In 2023, the ‘Ahat Veer Samman Patra’ was institutionalised to honour police personnel who sustain injuries or are wounded in the line of duty, particularly while handling riots and protests or apprehending criminals.
Delhi Police has consistently undertaken various welfare measures for the well-being of its personnel and their families. The Welfare Unit continues to make concerted efforts in this direction with a focus on recognising the sacrifices of personnel and extending timely assistance and support to those who sustain injuries in the line of duty.
