Zeeshan Siddique Named Youngest President of NCP's Mumbai Unit
The Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) has appointed Zeeshan Siddique as the new Mumbai unit president, making him the youngest leader to hold this position. Siddique, son of late Congress minister Baba Siddique, joined the NCP after his father's death in 2024 and was elected as a Member of the Legislative Council in 2026. Tasked with expanding the party's presence in Mumbai, Siddique is seen as a youthful face close to Rajya Sabha MP Parth Pawar, aiming to connect with the city's younger voters.
