Shooting Incident at Punjab University
On Tuesday evening, a shooting occurred at Punjab University in Chandigarh. Two assailants arrived on a scooter and fired two shots at Jasandeep Singh, a student leader and activist associated with SOPU. Fortunately, Singh managed to escape unharmed. The police arrived promptly after receiving reports of the incident, with DSP Dalbir and Inspector Jaspal Bhullar from Sector 11 police station also on the scene.

Police Launch Manhunt for Attackers
DSP Dalbir stated that preliminary investigations revealed the attackers fired two rounds. Authorities are reviewing all available CCTV footage as they search for the suspects. Police teams are actively conducting raids to apprehend the shooters. Additionally, a social media post from the Bambiha gang has surfaced, suggesting that the incident may be linked to ongoing gang rivalries, particularly between the Bambiha gang and the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
SOPU: The Oldest Student Organization
The Students Organization of Punjab University (SOPU) is one of the oldest and most prominent student groups at the university. SOPU has connections to former student leaders like Lawrence Bishnoi and Vicky Middukheda, who later became notorious gangsters. Lawrence Bishnoi was a key figure in SOPU and became acquainted with several dangerous gangsters during his college years.
Bambiha Gang Claims Responsibility
Goldy Barar, who was also a student at the college, became a close associate of Bishnoi. The Bambiha gang's social media post stated, "The shooting at Punjab University targeting SOPU leader Jasandeep was carried out by our gang members, Doni Bal and Shaganpreet. He was fortunate to escape, but not everyone is so lucky. Anyone who aligns with the Lawrence SOPU group will face dire consequences. Rest in peace, Sidhu Moosewala."
CCTV Footage of the Shooting Emerges
CCTV footage related to the shooting incident at Punjab University has surfaced, showing four individuals fleeing the scene. Initial investigations suggest that the scooter used by the assailants was stolen.
