He was part of the CRPF escort accompanying independent candidate Abdul Haque Khan. Near Ganai Mohalla, terrorists opened fire on the party from the surrounding by-lanes.
Constable Aphal Singh pursued the attackers into the by-lanes and sustained severe injuries while fighting from the front. He continued the engagement despite his injuries before later succumbing to them.
