The assailants opened fire at Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) worker Sandeep Sharma (34) in a lane at Daya Nagar last night, they added.
Sharma was rushed to a hospital in a serious condition, where the doctors declared him “brought dead”, the police said, adding that the body was sent for post-mortem.
Local BJP MLA Manish Asija and a number of BJP and RSS workers gathered at the hospital as soon as the news of Sharma’s killing spread.
