Another Hindu Leader Shot Dead In Amritsar 

Less than two weeks after the murder of an RSS leader in Ludhiana, a Hindu organisation leader was shot dead by unidentified assailants in this Punjab city on Monday.

Vipin Sharma, the district president of Hindu Sangharsh Sena in Amritsar, was shot in the Bharat Nagar area near Batala Road here and died on the spot. At least four assailants were reportedly involved in the attack. More details were awaited. Senior police officers rushed to the spot following the incident.

The killing of the Hindu leader has come within days of the killing of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) leader Ravinder Gosai in Ludhiana on October 17. Gosain was shot at twice from close range. He died on the spot. The Punjab government handed over the case pertaining to the killing of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) leader Ravindra Gosain in Ludhiana to the National Investigation Agency (NIA).
