ISRO sources said the security personnel challenged the two when they found them moving around in a suspicious manner. The duo fired at them with a small pistol, after which the security guards retaliated. The incident occurred between 3.30 am and 4.00 am, they said.
This ISRO facility houses the Indian Deep Space Network and tracking station for ISRO's satellite missions. Security was in place and the attempt to attack the guards was foiled, S Satish, a spokesperson of the organisation, said.
A police complaint has been launched and investigation is on.
