Kolkata/IBNS: At least two men were shot during a gun battle between two local groups over real estate promoting conflict at Gulshan Colony in east Kolkata's Anandapur area on Friday evening, reports said.

According to reports, members of two local rival groups engaged in a gun-battle with each other over a decade old promoting conflict.

Amateur footage captured by a local showed how few gunmen were firing bullets indiscriminately from a four-storey building.
