"There is a rumour going around about a firing targeting me. It's completely false," Sirsa said in a post on X.

Police said Sirsa was taking rounds in the Khyala area in the forenoon hours when a piece of metal, which looked like an empty cartridge from a distance, was found in a street.

"After closer examination, it appears to be a part of a sewing machine. However, it is being further examined. Police have scanned the area and any kind of incident has been ruled out," said a senior police officer.
