Mumbai’s political landscape saw a notable shift as Zeeshan Siddique, the son of veteran politician Baba Siddique, aligned himself with Ajit Pawar’s Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) faction, aiming to contest Maharashtra’s upcoming elections from the Bandra East constituency. Zeeshan’s decision follows his father’s recent exit from Congress, marking a significant departure after nearly 50 years within the party. Baba Siddique, a well-known figure in Mumbai’s Congress circles, is recognized for his local influence and his high-profile social gatherings that have often served as networking hubs for political figures and Bollywood personalities alike.
