Kejriwal said a family member of Sharma will also be given a government job.

"Ankit Sharma was a brave officer. He was brutally murdered in the riots. The country is proud of him. The Delhi government has decided that his family will be given an honorarium of Rs 1 crore, and a job to one person of his family. May his soul rest in peace," the Delhi chief minister tweeted.

Sharma's body was fished out of a drain in Chand Bagh area last week.
