Rohini Encounter: A major encounter took place in Delhi’s Rohini area late Wednesday night, in which four most-wanted gangsters from Bihar were gunned down. The operation was jointly conducted by the Delhi Police Crime Branch and the Bihar Police after receiving intelligence inputs about the gang’s movement in the national capital.

The exchange of fire occurred around 2:20 AM on the intervening night of October 22–23 near Bahadur Shah Marg, between Dr Ambedkar Chowk and Pansali Chowk in Rohini.
