An altercation between two factions of the right wing group Karni Sena led to a shootout in Rajasthan.
The incident took place at upscale Chitrakoot in Jaipur on Friday.
Mahipal Singh Makrana of the Karni Sena was attacked allegedly by the gunman of Shiv Singh Shekhawat of the Rashtriya Karni Sena.
In turn, Shiv Singh Shekhawat claims that Mahipal Singh Makrana’a men shot at him.
It is not clear what led to the heated exchange between them.
Videos from the site of shootout showed injured Mahipal Singh Makrana slumped on a sofa. In another video, his bloodied face can be seen. He has been rushed to a hospital.
“We were sitting in my office. Four people came in saying they want to meet me. A few days ago Mahipal Singh Makrana had threatened that he will harm me. I had also received a threat call from Pakistan. The men who came in started abusing me and then fired a shot. Then my gunman also fired a shot. You can see the blood mark on my hand,” said Shiv Singh Shekhawat, holding up his hand.
