Badal met with Dhadrianwale for almost 25 minutes at Gurudwara Parmeshar Dwar, and told him that an inquiry has already been instituted by state government to get to the bottom of the case.
Unidentified assailants had opened fire at the cavalcade of Dhadrianwale on May 17 in which he had a narrow escape, but his aide Bhupinder Singh Khalsa was shot dead.
Badal informed the preacher that police have nabbed eight persons allegedly involved in this incident so far.
The Chief Minister said the dastardly act must be condemned by one and all in the strictest possible words, but refused to comment on the investigation.
