Sukhbir Singh Badal Assassination Attempt: Khalistani Leader Narain Singh Chaura Behind The Attack
Khalistani leader Narain Singh Chaura allegedly attempted to assassinate senior Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) leader Sukhbir Singh Badal at the Golden Temple in Amritsar. Chaura, associated with the now-defunct Khalistan National Army, fired a shot but missed the Z-plus security-protected former Punjab deputy chief minister. The shocking incident unfolded during Badalโ€™s โ€œpunishmentโ€ guard duty mandated by the Akal Takht. Chaura, who has a history of militancy and criminal allegations, was overpowered and arrested immediately. This alarming event has raised serious questions about security within religious and political spaces in Punjab. #SukhbirSinghBadal #AssassinationAttempt #NarainSinghChaura #KhalistaniLeader #GoldenTempleAttack #PunjabPolitics #SADLeaderTargeted #ZPlusSecurityBreach #AkalTakhtMandate #PunjabMilitancy #ShiromaniAkaliDal #KhalistanControversy #ReligiousSpaceSecurity #PoliticalAssassinationBid #AmritsarIncident Also Read Who Is Narain Chaura, The Man Who Opened Fire At Sukhbir Singh Badal? :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/who-is-narain-chaura-the-man-who-opened-fire-at-sukhbir-singh-badal-4005767.html Sukhbir Badal Targeted In Shooting Attempt At Golden Temple, Attacker Arrested :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/sukhbir-badal-targeted-in-shooting-attempt-at-golden-temple-attacker-arrested-4005747.html Sukhbir Singh Badal Resigns As Shiromani Akali Dal President Ahead Of Party Elections :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/sukhbir-singh-badal-resigns-as-shiromani-akali-dal-president-ahead-of-party-elections-3989157.html ~HT.318~PR.152~ED.194~GR.122~
