Well-known folk singer from Haryana,Binu Chaudhary,was shot dead on the Haridwar-Dehradun highway on Tuesday night. Two unidentified assailants open fired when she was having dinner at a dhaba. According to the police,Chaudhary was the only one targeted by the assailants.

The assailants fired one shot each at her. We rushed her to a hospital but the doctors declared her dead on arrival, said Haridwar DSP Jodhram Joshi. Her murder appears to be a well-hatched conspiracy,since the assailants identified her,knew her location,and shot her twice to ensure that she dies. Prima-facie it appears to be a handiwork of contract killers, a Haridwar police officer said.
