Mumbai: Baba Siddique, a former Maharashtra minister and member of the NCP's Ajit Pawar faction, has died after being shot in Mumbai's Bandra on Saturday evening. Siddique, who was rushed to Lilavati Hospital in critical condition, succumbed to his injuries.

Sources said three bullets were fired at Siddique at his son Zeeshan's office, the MLA from Bandra East.

Siddique, a three-time MLA from Bandra West, was with the Congress for 48 years before leaving the party in February to join Ajit Pawar's NCP. His son, Zeeshan Siddique, was expelled from Congress in August.
