NEW DELHI: A paramilitary soldier has killed four of his comrades and injured another inside a camp in central India, an official said Sunday. The trooper turned his gun on his fellow soldiers at around 5:00 pm local time Saturday (1130 GMT) in Bijapur district of Chhattisgarh state. Another one, an ASI (assistant sub-inspector), was injured in the incident,” a Bijapur administrative official told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity. Chhattisgarh’s chief minister took to Twitter to condemn the killing of the CRPF soldiers, who are deployed for counter-insurgency operations. In January, a paramilitary soldier from one of India’s elite security units shot dead four of his senior officers in an apparent row over leave.
