Gunmen opened fire on Baba Siddique, 66, near the office of his son, who is also a politician, according to local media reports.
Two people have been arrested in connection with the killing.
Siddique, a former local minister, was a senior figure in the politics of Maharashtra state, which is expected to hold legislative polls next month.

Excuse the question, but on the scale of “normal weekend” to “civil war, now”, how out of the ordinary is this in India? Does this affect the Modi government in any way?
