Punjab AAP leader Mandeep Singh Brar was injured after being struck by a bullet allegedly fired by a Shiromani Akali Dal leader during a heated argument in Fazilka district.

Local AAP leader suffered a bullet wound and was initially treated at a government hospital in Jalalabad before being referred to a medical center in Ludhiana due to his critical condition. 

The shooting reportedly took place outside the office of the Block Development and Panchayat Officer (BDPO) following a heated argument.

AAP Punjab senior spokesperson, Neel Garg said in a post on X, “Violence has no place in our democracy. The unfortunate attack on our sarpanch candidate in Jalalabad is deeply concerning. The @AamAadmiParty believes in peace, development, and fairness for all. We stand strong against criminal mindsets and urge authorities to take swift action.”
