Upset over his daughter's marriage with a boy from another caste, a man allegedly made a bid to kill his daughter at Bakher Nagar village, police said on Thursday.
25-year-old Nishu was in love with Banti but her family was opposed to their relationship. The girl eloped with Banti on July
18 and later returned to the boy's house.
When Vijai Pal, father of the girl, came to know that the couple had returned, he went to the place yesterday and opened fire on his daughter, they said, adding the girl was unhurt in the firing.
