[Global Times Special Correspondent in Pakistan Cheng Shijie Global Times Special Correspondent Zhen Xiang] The Times of India reported on the 30th that Nabha Kishor Das, Minister of Health of Odisha State in eastern India, attended a meeting in the state on the 29th. During the event, he was shot and killed by a policeman.
The live video showed that Das, who arrived at the event site by car, was shot as soon as he got out of the car. He was shot in the chest and was immediately sent to a nearby hospital for emergency treatment, but eventually died.
According to the report, the murderer fired his gun into the sky after shooting Dass, and seemed to want to scare the surrounding crowd to get away, but was quickly subdued by the police.
Odisha has announced a three-day mourning period, and the state will fly its flag at half-staff on the day of Das's funeral.
Senior leaders such as India's president and prime minister have also expressed their condolences on Das' death.
India's "First Post" stated that the 60-year-old Das is from Odisha.
He joined the Indian National Congress in his early years, and in 2019 he switched to the powerful Biju People's Party in Odisha State, and subsequently achieved double growth in personal status and wealth.
In 2019, the Biju People's Party continued to win a big victory in the state elections, and the current chairman of the party serves as the chief minister of the state.
A senior member of the Bambiju BJP in Odisha, Das has deep pockets.
The 2021 declaration information shows that the total value of movable and immovable properties under Das' name is as high as 340 million rupees (100 rupees equals about 8 yuan).
He owns 145 cars worth Rs 150 crore, 80 of which are in his own name and 65 in his wife's name.
Just a week before the shooting, Das donated a gold pot to a temple, which was said to be worth as much as Rs 1 crore, but he later refuted rumors that the actual value of the pot was only Rs 10 lakh.
In addition, Darth is also particularly fond of guns.
He once told people that he did not collect guns for self-defense, but simply liked it.
The Indian police stated that the specific reason for the murder is still under investigation.
According to sources, the police are considering investigating the murderer's motives from the perspective of commercial competition.
Indian media said that the policeman who shot Das, Gopa Klushner, suffered from bipolar disorder.
A local psychiatrist revealed that Gopa Klushna first sought a doctor about 8 to 10 years ago, and he was particularly prone to anger; his last visit to a doctor was a year ago, and it is not clear whether he insists on taking medicine regularly.
Gopa Klushna's wife also told the media that her husband suffers from mental illness, but since the husband and wife are not currently living together, it is not clear whether the husband insists on taking the medicine.
Patients with bipolar disorder will alternately fluctuate between hyperactive mania and depression, and need to take medicine and psychological counseling to control the condition.
Regarding this situation, some Indian media questioned why Gopa Klushna was able to serve as a policeman for a long time and hold a gun when he was mentally unstable.
