INTERESTING BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Zeenat Siddiqui’s journey in the field of journalism began in 2011, when she undertook an internship with renowned publications such as Punjab Kesari, Pratap, and Nai Dunia in New Delhi. This formative experience laid the groundwork for her burgeoning career, allowing her to hone her reporting skills and gain invaluable insights into the fast-paced world of news media. By January 2012, her dedication and talent propelled her into a more substantial role at Janta TV, where she served as a news anchor and producer. Over the course of nearly three years, until December 2014, Zeenat cultivated her expertise, delivering compelling news stories to the audience and cementing her reputation in the industry.
In December 2014, Zeenat took on a new challenge at F7 Broadcast Private Limited, continuing her dual role as a news anchor and producer until May 2015. During this period, she developed a keen eye for important regional stories and further expanded her broadcasting skills. Following her time at F7 Broadcast, she transitioned to Network18 Media & Investments Limited in June 2015. Working in Hyderabad, she played a vital role in reporting the latest news until March 2022.

Her tenure at Zee, which lasted until February 2024, further solidified her standing as a trusted news source, especially through her coverage of local stories on Zee Delhi NCR Haryana. Following this experience, she took the bold step of launching her own news company, Check Post News, where she continues to serve as a news anchor. This entrepreneurial venture allows her to maintain her commitment to delivering relevant news while exploring the evolving landscape of journalism.
Outside of her professional endeavors, Zeenat is dedicated to maintaining her fitness, regularly working out at the gym to stay physically active and healthy.
