The incident took place today when two motorcycle-borne persons fired shots at the Shakha ground ahead of the assembly sangh sanyamsevaks, they said.
The eyewitnesses said that sound of two gun shots were heard.
Police said that the unidentified miscreants were wearing monkey caps and hence could not be identified.
DCP Narinder Bhargva said that the police party rushed to the spot after receiving the information. No one was injured in the firing as assembly of sangh sanyamsewaks was yet to start, the DCP said.
Meanwhile, police have registered a case against two
unidentified assailants under IPC sections 307 (attempt to murder) and 336 (act endangering life or personal safety of others) and sections 25/27 of the Arms Act.
DCP Bhargva, who is supervising the operation against the miscreants, said that one cartridge of .32 bore pistol has been recovered from inside the ground.
He said that all efforts are being made to work out the case at the earliest. The security of the local RSS leaders have also been beefed up by police.
Parveen Bansal, president of the district unit of the BJP, appealed to the public to remain calm and peaceful.
