Saroj Devi rushed out of her house when her son Raju screamed out for help after the accused started firing. Two bullets hit Saroj in the process.
The victim was rushed to a nearby hospital where she was declared brought dead.
Police said, Saroj used to sell illegal drugs like cannabis at her residence in Janta Colony where she used to live with her two sons.
