Three armed persons allegedly attacked and seriously injured a 32-year-old shop owner when he tried to resist their robbery bid in a medical store at Indirapuram area here.
Gaurav Arora, owner of a photo studio in Gyan Khand area, was admitted to a private hospital, where his condition was said to be critical, police said.
