A 24-year-old man was allegedly stabbed to death following a petty monetary dispute with a vendor here, police said on Monday.

Sanjeet Kumar had a contract for cleaning the Sabzi Mandi market and he used to charge Rs 10 from each vendor for the service. The incident occurred when an altercation occurred between Kumar and a vendor over a pending amount of Rs 40-50 on Sunday night.

The quarrel escalated, and the accused allegedly stabbed Kumar, leaving him seriously injured. He was initially admitted to the local government hospital, but was later referred to a private hospital in Ludhiana, where he succumbed to his injuries on Monday.
