The victim has been admitted to a private hospital where his condition is critical.

Amritpal Singh, younger brother of the victim, stated Jugraj was going in his car when he was fired at. He sustained bullet injuries in his head and chest. The accused had an argument with the victim a few days ago due to which the assault took place.
