Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath Sunday visited the family of slain CRPF constable Pankaj Tripathi in Maharajganj district's Harpur Belhiya village.

Tripathi was one of the 40 Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) personnel killed in the terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pulwama district.

The chief minister paid tributes to the constable and assured Tripathi's family that their demands would be fulfilled.

Adityanath spoke to family members and enquired when Tripathi had last come home.

The constable's father, Om Prakash Tripathi, said, He (the chief minister) didn't ask us about our demand and has not told us what we will be getting. We wrote our demands in a piece of paper and we gave it to the chief minister."
