A day after the Punjab government withdrew the security of 400 VIPs including Moosewala, the popular singer was shot to death while he was travelling in a car along with his friends.
Severely-injured Moosewala and his friends were rushed to a nearby hospital, where doctors declared him dead.
Moosewala had unsuccessfully contested the 2022 Assembly elections from Mansa constituency on a Congress ticket.
He lost to AAP's Vijay Singla, who was recently sacked by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann from his Cabinet on corruption charges.
The singer-turned-politician was facing four criminal cases, including two for shooting objectionable scenes.
He was famous for his unique rapping style and known for doling out a number of chartbuster tracks.
