Lucknow: The Uttar Pradesh police has
announced a cash reward of Rs 2 lakh to any person
providing information in the Chief Medical officer Dr BP
Singh`s murder case.

The Director General of Police Karamveer Singh has
announced the cash reward to a person providing vital
information regarding assailants of the CMO, officials said.

The DGP has assured that the identity of the person
would be kept secret, they said.

The information can be given to Special DGP Brij Lal, DIG
Lucknow, STF or the district police, they said.

Singh was shot dead by two unidentified motorcycle-borne
assailants on Saturday, near his Gomti Nagar residence when he
had gone out for the morning walk.

Protesting against the incident, doctors of Provincial
Medical Services went on a state-wide flash strike, which was
called off last night after a meeting with the government
officials.

Meanwhile, security has been provided to Singh`s
family and other eye-witnesses, who were present on the spot
when the CMO was killed, they said.
