Mangaluru, Jan 7: Deepak Rao, who was hacked to death by trouble mongers earlier this week, used to earn Rs 11,000 salary per month. However, his mother has received more than Rs 50 lakh as compensation from government, politicians and well wishers in just three days.

A gang of miscreants had hacked 32-year-old Deepak to death in broad daylight at his hometown Katipalla in Mangaluru on January 3. The very next day the government had announced Rs 10 lakh compensation – Rs 5 lakh from district administration and Rs 5 lakh from chief minister’s fund – to the family of the victim.

When the family members demanded Rs 50 lakh compensation, the Deputy Commissioner Sasikanth Senthil had promised them to recommend for enhanced compensation.

Meanwhile, Sangh Parivar activists launched a social media campaign appealing the people across Karnataka to financially support Deepak’s aggrieved mother Premalatha and physically challenged brother. As a result Premalatha’s account received over Rs 31 lakh in just three days, sources said.

Brijesh Chowta of the BJP said the fund-raiser was a spontaneous reaction from those who mourned Deepak's death. "The campaign was launched on social media after Deepak's funeral. We did not convene a meeting for this; it was launched by many people simultaneously," he said.

On the other hand Dakshina Kannada unit of BJP has decided to donate Rs 5 lakh to the family. This cheque is likely to be handed over to the family by BJP state president B S Yeddyurappa. Former minister Krishna J Palemar has also promised to donate Rs 5 lakh in his personal capacity. Local MLA B A Mohiuddin Bava had also announced Rs 5 lakh in his personal capacity. However, the Sangh Parivar activists reportedly persuaded the family of Deepak to reject his compensation.
