In a shocking incident at Kamla Nehru Nagar under Kavinagar police station in Uttar Pradesh’s Ghaziabad, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) councillor Sheetal Chaudhary was targeted in a shooting by unidentified assailants. The attack occurred around 8:30 pm on Wednesday (October 29) when the councillor was traveling alone in her white Creta car from Govindpuram towards Sanjay Nagar. As she was driving, two men on a motorcycle overtook her vehicle and opened fire. Two bullets struck the car’s windshield.
Fortunately, Sheetal Chaudhary sustained no injuries in the incident. Both shooters were wearing helmets, which has complicated their identification. After firing, the assailants fled the scene immediately. Police officers promptly arrived and began an investigation into the attempted attack.
