NEW DELHI/MUMBAI: The murder of NCP leader Baba Siddique in Mumbai kicked off a political storm, with the opposition parties, including the Congress, on Sunday alleging "complete collapse" of law and order in Maharashtra where Assembly polls are due next month.
The BJP and the NCP, the ruling parties in the state, asserted that those involved in the killing of Siddique will not be spared, and slammed the Opposition for indulging in "petty politics" on the crime.
Sixty-six-year-old Siddique, a former Maharashtra minister who joined the Ajit Pawar-led NCP in February this year after quitting the Congress, was waylaid by three men at Kher Nagar in Mumbai's Bandra area just outside his MLA son Zeeshan Siddique's office and shot dead on Saturday night.
