Former Patna councillor Anil Yadav was critically injured after being shot at in his apartment complex in the Buddha Colony area of Patna on Wednesday, according to police reports. Yadav, who was sitting in the basement of his apartment complex with some supporters, was allegedly targeted by two unidentified men who arrived on a motorcycle and fired multiple shots.
He was rushed to Udyan Hospital and remains under medical supervision. Police have launched an investigation into the incident, questioning residents and examining CCTV footage from cameras in the apartment complex and surrounding areas to identify the attackers. The police are also conducting raids at suspected hideouts to apprehend the suspects.
The motive behind the attack is under investigation, and police are considering the possibility of previous enmity or other factors. Yadav is a former councillor from Ward No. 24 of the Patna Municipal Corporation, and his wife is the current councillor from the same ward. The recent attack has drawn attention due to the tragic death of Yadav's son a few days ago, leading investigators to explore any potential connection between the two incidents.
Police deployment has been increased in the area as authorities work to identify and apprehend the attackers.
