A twitter account named Abhishek Kumar Kushwaha posted a tweet claiming, ”On the Kanhaiya Lal murder case in Udaipur, Ashok Gehlot had announced a compensation of Rs 5 lakh to the victim’s family, which till date his family has not received.”

Furthermore, report mentioned that the victim’s family was handed over a check of Rs 51 lakh. Moreover, in the cabinet meeting, the government had passed the proposal of giving govt jobs to both the sons of Kanhaiya Lal.
