Three assailants barged into the house of former Sarpanch Gopal around 8.30 p.m. and opened indiscriminate fire on the family members. “The family members were relaxing after the Deepavali puja when the attack took place. There were around 4-5 assailants, three of them entered the house and opened fire,” said Veer Singh, Assistant Commissioner of Police, Pataudi.
