Parliament member of the Bharatiya Janata party of the East Delhi Assembly constituency Gautam Gambhir said on Thursday that the state administration had failed Delhi police officer Amit Kumar, who died on Tuesday due to Covid-19 and he also promised to take care of the policeman’s child as if it were his own.
“We cannot bring Agent Amit back, but I assure you, I will take care of your son as if he were mine.” GGF will take care of your complete education. #DelhiFailedAmit #CoronaWarriorsIndia, “Gambhir tweeted on Thursday.
“All who have complaints against the police should think about the sacrifice of agent Amit ji. He died of Covid-19 in the line of duty because for him the service was supreme. My condolences with the family,” said the BJP MP in another tweet.
Delhi Police Officer Amit Kumar belonged to Sonepat in Haryana, where his wife and three-year-old son live. Kumar lived with a friend on the fifth floor of a rented house in Gandhi Nagar, a neighborhood near Bharat Nagar where he worked.
The 31-year-old officer posted to the Bharat Nagar police station in north-west Delhi died of the infectious Covid-19 disease just two days ago. Kumar worked primarily with the crime records unit at the police station.
“On Tuesday, before his death, he was tested for Covid-19 by a private laboratory. The test result that arrived on Wednesday revealed that it was positive for Covid-19, ”a senior police officer had said after the officer’s death.
This is the first coronavirus death among city police personnel. So far, at least thirty-six police officers in the national capital have tested positive for Covid-19 disease.
