Saharanpur/UP/IBNS: Bhim Army Chief Chandrashekhar Azad Ravan was on Wednesday shot at in Uttar Pradesh's Saharanpur, media reports said.

Two bullets were fired at his car. While the first one entered the seat of the vehicle, grazing his waist as it passed through the door, the second bullet hit the back door, narrowly missing him.

The bullet brushed past Azad, who has been taken to the hospital for treatment.

The Bhim Army chief was travelling in a Toyota Fortuner when he was attacked. Photos of an injured Azad and his damaged vehicle were shared by the Bhim Army on social media.

"The deadly attack on Bhim Army Chief and National President Bhai Chandrasekhar Azad in Deoband of Saharanpur is a cowardly act of stopping the Bahujan Mission Movement! Demands quick arrest of accused, strict action and security of National President Bhai Chandrasekhar Azad ji!" the Bhim Army said in a statement.
