Surajbari (Gujarat), Jan 8 IANS) A former BJP MLA, Jayanthi Bhanushali, was shot shot dead in a moving train by some unknown persons in Gujarat on Tuesday.
According to informed sources, Bhanushali was travelling from Bhuj to Ahmedabad in the Sayaji Nagari Express when he was killed.
Two unknown persons boarded the train at Malviya station in Kutch, entered the AC coach and fired a couple of shots at Bhanushali, hitting him in the eye and the chest and killing him on the spot.
Bhanushali was elected an MLA from Abdasa in Kutch district in 2007.
The incident happened around 2 a.m. on Tuesday between Surajbari and Kataria villages.
