Chief minister Rekha Gupta said the assistance will be released shortly to the families of 10 such employees, adding that the process to cover all eligible cases is already underway.

“Doctors, nurses, sanitation workers, teachers and several other employees of the Delhi government risked their lives when the entire world had come to a standstill out of fear,” the chief minister said.

“Their service ensured that hospitals functioned, essential supplies reached people and the city did not collapse. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten in Delhi's history,” the chief minister added.
