One Commanding Officer of 6 Assam Rifles posted at Sendra hillock, Bishnupur district under Moirang police station sustained injuries when one personnel opened fire within their camp at around 6 this morning.
One L Rajesh came to the room of CO Col Niraz Kumar and fired from an AK 47 rifle inflicting bullet injuries on the right hand and leg of the CO.
He was immediately airlifted to Leimakhong military hospital.
His condition is said to be out of danger.
Rifleman L Rajesh from Thoubal district was overpowered by other AR personnel.
He was working as a cook of the CO and it is not clear what prompted him to attack the officer.
To take part in a firing practice session, Rajesh was given an AK-47 rifle.
However, rather than going to the practice ground, he went straight to the CO's room and attacked the CO, informed
