Mumbai: Maharashtra is in the middle of one of the worst chaos it has ever witnessed, under the debris of COVID-19 and the ever-mounting cases of the virus, people are left out in cold with the shortage of oxygen, blood, ICU beds, Remdesivir, and everything that can bring any relief to the patients and their families.

With the situation looking grim and expected to go further down, Maharashtra’s youngest MLA and Congress leader Zeeshan Siddique is working tirelessly on the ground to do everything under his control to help people in his constituency.

Zeeshan, who is MLA from Vandre East constituency, is working with his team and is trying to ensure people in distress can be helped with adequate treatment, admission to hospital, vaccination, or even for people who want to check on their relative at COVID centre if they are not able to get through.

28-year-old Zeeshan is using Twitter as the medium of connecting with people and has requested people to tag him or DM him with their concerns and that he and his team will try to help in any way that is possible.

In the last few days, Zeeshan’s Twitter timeline is flooded with both requests for help as well as messages thanking him and his team for timely intervention and help for patients in their families and friends.

At a time when the Centre is clueless about its action plan on COVID’s second wave and is busy with election campaigning in West Bengal while the state government is struggling to communicate with the Centre to cope with the situation, several young politicians, activists like Zeeshan have come out as the new ray of hope for the people in distress. Although what they are doing is not enough to neutralize the deadly situation the country is in at the moment, it definitely is helping people and their families at the individual level.

The stories of their sheer dedication and empathy towards fellow citizens is what is keeping people still hopeful of more people joining such heroism to help people in distress and do what is largely expected by the elected governments.

“As it was a historic win, we have invited Prime Minister Narendra Modi to grace the occasion," he said.

The new Assam chief minister will be selected at a meeting of the BJP legislature party in presence of central observers, Sarma said.
