Tonk. Within just 12 hours, the police has exposed the murder of constable Bhagchand Saini, who was martyred on the altar of duty in Uniara subdivision of the district. This sensational incident happened when Bhagchand, posted at Kakod post of Banetha police station, was patrolling near Rupwas turn late on Saturday night.

Bhagchand, who joined the police service in the year 2018, was married four years ago.
