Hearing the gunshots, the victim's relatives rushed to the spot and took her to a hospital, they said.
“Sharma wanted to talk to her. But she asked him to leave. This apparently angered Sharma who whipped out a pistol and shot at the woman even as she tried to close the door. He then fled,” said a police officer told Hindustan Times.
The condition of the woman, who is a chartered accountant, is stable. The accused, who works with a jagran mandal, had been harassing the woman, they said.
According to Sharma's family members, the woman's family had disowned him last month because of his “obsession” for the woman. He had resigned from a private company and started playing musical instruments in religious events as his part time work, the HT report added.
The man was arrested from Shahdara, police said.
