Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu today announced financial assistance of Rs 10 lakh to K Sriramulu, a member of the NSG bomb disposal squad who suffered life-threatening injuries in Pathankot, where the air base came under terror attack in January.

He also promised to allot a house site and said the government will take care of the commando's family.

Sriramulu is yet to recover fully though he came out of a five-month coma after he was injured while trying to defuse bombs following the terror attack on Air Force base in the Punjab city.

The commando, who hails from Srikakulam district in north coastal Andhra, was brought to the Chief Minister's Office here this evening by his NSG colleagues.
 

On learning about the commando's plight, the Chief Minister had announced the government's financial assistance.
