They also demanded efforts to track the attackers be stepped up and installation of CCTV cameras at sensitive locations, he added.

The BJP leader said the delegation also demanded proper rehabilitation of those who were critically injured in the attack.

"The attack left several victims permanently disabled. They have been paid some amount as relief but no solid steps were taken for their rehabilitation," Sharma said, demanding government jobs for the victims on compassionate grounds.

He said the Phalyana firing victims' kin also raised the demand for employment to one member of each family and adequate financial aid.
