Home Minister P Chidambaram on Monday said the firing incident at the Art of Living founder Sri Sri Ravi Shankar's ashram on Sunday could be related to a dispute between two of his followers and it may not be correct to say that it was aimed at the spiritual leader.
"The incident took place after he (Sri Sri Ravi Shankar) had left in his car. It may not be correct to say that the firing was aimed at him," Chidambaram said in an interaction with reporters on the performance of his ministry during May.
He said the incident could be related to "dispute between two of (his) followers".
The minister said that he had received oral report about the incident and would receive a written report by the end of the day.
