A 45-year-old village head was today shot dead and his neighbour injured by two bike-borne assailants in the district.
The incident took place this morning when Ramavtar, head of Khudi village, was sitting with two other men in his house, police said.
"He along with two others was sitting in his house when two men entered into the house and opened fire," Additional SP Prakash Sharma said.
While Ramavtar died on the spot, his neighbour Tarachand, who tried to protect him, got injured, Sharma added.
The accused have been identified as Surendra Nitharwal and Pintu Mehla.
The body has been shifted to the district hospital for postmortem and efforts were on to nab the accused, he said, adding, prima facie the attack appears to be due to old enmity.
