Sukhbir Singh Badal Attack Updates: A man opened fire at former deputy chief minister of Punjab and Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) chief Sukhbir Singh Badal while he was serving his penance at the entrance of the Golden Temple in Amritsar. Mr Badal, who was sitting in a wheelchair, escaped unhurt as the bullet hit a wall.
The man, identified as Narain Singh, was overpowered by some people standing outside the temple.
Visuals from the incident spot show Mr Badal sitting at the gate of the Golden Temple with a spear in one hand and dressed in a blue 'sewadar' uniform. A supposedly middle-aged man slowly approaches the temple's gate and pulls out a gun. A man standing near Mr Badal can be seen spotting the accused and holding his hand.
The shooter has been arrested and police are investigating the motive behind the shocking attack.
