Is Sania Mirza joining Indian politics?

The nomination of Indian tennis star Sania Mirza by the Congress party to contest the upcoming Lok Sabha elections from the Hyderabad constituency is making headlines.

According to reports in the Indian media, former Indian cricketer and Congress leader Mohammad Azharuddin has proposed Sania Mirza’s candidacy for the elections.

There is speculation in the Indian media about Sania Mirza potentially entering Indian politics.

Reports suggest that Sania Mirza is being positioned as a Congress candidate to contest the Lok Sabha elections from Hyderabad.

Media reports indicate that the Congress party is considering fielding Sania Mirza against Asaduddin Owaisi, the leader of the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (AIMIM), in a political battle in Hyderabad.

It’s important to note that the Congress party last won the parliamentary seat from Hyderabad in 1980.

Sania Mirza’s potential entry into the elections has drawn attention, particularly after the Congress Central Election Committee (CEC) met to finalize the names of its 18 candidates from Goa, Telangana, Uttar Pradesh, and Jharkhand.
