Agartala: April 21: In a mysterious and concerning incident, a jawan of the Border Security Force (BSF) was admitted to Gomati District Hospital with a bullet injury to his chest.
According to medical officials, the injured jawan was initially brought to the Nutanbazar Hospital before being referred to the district hospital for further evaluation. The attending medical officer at Gomati District Hospital confirmed that the bullet wound was located on the left side of the chest.
