Srinagar: BJP sarpanch Sajjad Ahmed Khandey was shot dead by few unidentified terrorists just outside his Vessu residence in jammu and Kashmir’s Kulgam district on Thursday.

The sarpanch was immediately rushed to a hospital in Qazigund area with bullet injuries where he succumbed to his wounds. So far no terror outfit has claimed responsibility for the attack.
