The body of the 47-year-old constable was consigned to flames amid chanting of hymns at Nigambodh ghat crematorium at 3.45 PM in the presence of a host of dignitaries.
Minister of State for Home R P N Singh, Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit, Civil Aviation Minister Ajit Singh, Home Secretary R K Singh and Delhi Police Commissioner Neeraj Kumar were present along with top officers and men of the Delhi Police.
The constable was admitted at Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital on Sunday evening after sustaining injuries and he was on ventilator since then.
Tomar, a graduate in arts, hailed from Meerut in Uttar Pradesh.
He was posted in Karawal Nagar area and was called for maintaining law and order at India Gate area during the protests on Sunday over the gangrape of a 23-year-old girl on December 16 here.
Tomar, who joined the police in 1987, was found lying injured on Tilak Marg and was rushed to the hospital.
Delhi Police Chief was the first to arrive at the crematorium, even before Tomar's body was brought at 2.30 PM. He was followed by Dikshit, R P N Singh and the Home Secretary.
Kumar assured the constable's wife and his two sons of all possible help.
A group of protesters gathered outside the crematorium demanding capital punishment to those responsible for the constable's death.
Terming the death of Tomar as "unfortunate", the Civil Aviation Minister asked the government to set up more fast track courts in other parts of the country to speed up the trial in over 10,000 rape cases and provide speedy justice to the victims.
