Sukhbir Badal narrowly escapes assassination bid
The Morning Standard
|December 05, 2024
SHIROMANI Akali Dal (SAD) chief Sukhbir Singh Badal on Wednesday narrowly escaped an assassination attempt outside the Golden Temple in Amritsar.
Badal was performing the duty of 'sewadar' at the main gate of the shrine when a former Babbar Khalsa International terrorist, Narain Singh Chaura, tried to shoot him around 9.30 am, but missed narrowly.
Standing a few meters away from Badal, Chaura took out a pistol and tried to shoot Badal, but was quickly subdued by the security personnel in plain clothes. A bullet was fired, which missed Badal and hit a wall.
