Baba Siddique Joins NCP, Sparks Resignation Speculations
Originally Published 1 year ago — by NDTV

Former Congress leader Baba Siddique joined the NCP, criticizing his former party and likening his treatment to "curry leaves." His departure marks a significant blow to the Congress, where he had been a member for 48 years. Siddique's decision follows the recognition of the Ajit Pawar faction of the NCP by the Election Commission, ending a factional fight within the party. His son, a Congress MLA, will make his own decision regarding party affiliation.
