Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala, who was shot dead by gangsters in broad daylight in Punjab's Mansa district on Sunday, was widely known for his 'gangster rap'. His stardom was often overtaken by the controversies surrounding him for promoting drugs and violence through his songs.
Leaders of the Congress and other political leaders expressed shock and anger over the killing of Moosewala and attacked the AAP government for withdrawing his security cover.
