Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal today said the attack on senior RSS leader Jagdish Gagneja could have been orchestrated by a "neighbouring country" to create law and order problems.
"Law and order problem could be created either by internal forces or by external forces. This (attack on Gagneja) appears to be a case of the second type where the hand of a neighbouring country could not be ruled out," he said after visiting the RSS leader who is still critical.
Instead of criticising one another, we should maintain unity and brotherhood, Badal said.

The Punjab Chief Minister also met members of Gagneja's family in the hospital and talked to the doctors about the RSS leader's condition.
Earlier, deputy chief minister Sukhbir Singh Badal also enquired about the health of Gajneja.
He said that ten special police teams had been formed to nab the criminals behind the attack.
Gagneja, the Vice President of RSS (Punjab), was shot at on Saturday by bike-borne persons at Jyoti Chowk area in Jalandhar when he had gone shopping with his wife, leaving him seriously injured. A four-member SIT has been formed to probe the attack.
