Workers murdered in the vehicle
The death actually fell from the hell for three innocent duty
workers who were returning to their homes in a vehicle on April 28,
1992 at around 9.30 PM. When their vehicle was passing through
village Pabbian, an indiscriminate firing started from a roof top,
killing all the workers and four
more passers-by. Three other persons also got seriously injured in
the shoot out. Only the terrorists involved in the killings can tell
the motive behind this barbarian act which ostensibly had no rhyme
or reason. Probably terrorists in their modness were waiting for any
passing vehicle to kill the passengers. Using vantage point of roof
of a building for firing into
the vehicle in cold blood was extremely traumatic for the society at
large.

Physician
with staff killed
Dr. Bachitar Singh was an eminent
physician and the Director of Punjab's Health Department. The wild
killers did not spare even such a saviour. On October 26, 1991, Dr.
Singh and some other officials of the Health Department were coming
in two cars from Gurdwara Mehtiana Sahib. When their cars reached
near Manuke at about 10.45 AM., half a dozen terrorists ambushed
them. The terrorists bullets took the lives of Dr. Singh and six
more officials of the Health Department.
Play ground killing in Ludhiana
Daresi Ground is a meeting place-cum-play ground in Ludhiana . It is
generally crowded as people from all walks of life gather there,
besides kids who come there for playing. It was a normal evening at
Daresi Ground, before the terror struck on March 28, 1986. An eye
witness' account states that three persons came there on a motor
cycle, and two
more came on a scooter. All of them were armed with automatic
weapons. Before the common people could realise what was going to
happen, the five killers started firing indiscriminately. Eleven
innocent people were killed and fifteen others were injured in the
shoot out, which is commonly known as "Daresi Ground
Shoot-Out"
Ninteen fell prey
It was a case of a cold-blooled murder at Field Ganj, Ludhiana when
19 innocent people fell prey to the bullets of wild terrorists. On
March 18, 1992, the area was humming with usual activity when three
terrorists armed with automatic rifles came on foot. They, without
any provocation started firing on the innocent people. Ninteen
people died. This was the begining of a series of shoot-outs and
blasts between March and August, 1992 within a radius of 60 KM from
Ludhiana. In 12 incidents more then 70 unsuspecting civilians lost
their lives in sudden attacks by the terrorists in public places.
