Notably, Thapar received police protection and the attack took place in front of his armed guard.

President Shiv Sena Punjab, Rajiv Tandon said, “Sandeep Thapar had gone to the civil hospital to attend a memorial function of BJP leader Ravinder Arora.

As soon as he came out of the hospital with his gunman, a group of Nihangs intercepted him. The accused assaulted Sandeep Thapar with swords in front of his gunman who did nothing to save him.”

After the attack, the Shiv Sena leaders protest at the civil hospital and later on at DMC hospital against the police administration.
