Mumbai: While no amount of money can compensate for the loss of a loved one, financial support during a crisis can prevent a family from collapsing. With this sentiment, the Mumbai Police extended a helping hand to the family of its fallen colleague. Former Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Ajit Pawar, and his bodyguard, Late Shri Vidip Jadhav, lost their lives in a tragic aircraft accident.

Axis Bank disburses ₹1.21 crore insurance

Late Vidip Jadhav maintained his salary account with Axis Bank. Under the insurance cover linked to his salary account, a cheque of ₹1.21 crore was handed over to his family by Axis Bank on February 13, 2026. The programme was held at the office of the Mumbai Police Commissioner.

The cheque was presented to the nominated family member by Mumbai Police Commissioner Deven Bharti, IPS. Senior officials of Axis Bank were also present on the occasion.

CP assures full departmental support
