Man Shot Dead in South Delhi
A man named Ratan Lal was shot and killed in South Delhi early in the morning.
He was going to get milk when three people in a small car came and shot him many times.
The police think this might be because of a fight between his family and another family over some land.
Last year, someone from the other family was arrested for shooting a businessman, and now this might be payback.
The police are still looking into it to find out exactly what happened.
Ratan Lal was shot at least a dozen times by three individuals in a small hatchback.
The incident occurred around 6:30 am in the Aya Nagar area of South Delhi.
The motive is suspected to be a revenge killing related to a land dispute between the victim's family and the Lohia family.

The victim died on the spot, and the police are investigating the case.
