'''Sanjeev Ganesh Naik''' (born 15 April 1972) is an [[India]]n politician, who became the first mayor of the satellite city of [[Navi Mumbai]] at the age of 23.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.mid-day.com/news/2002/nov/36562.htm|title=Sanjeev Naik is Navi Mumbai mayor|date=2002-11-17|publisher=www.mid-day.com|accessdate=2009-04-18}}</ref> He was the [[Nationalist Congress Party]] (NCP) Member of the 15th Lok Sabha from [[Thane (Lok Sabha constituency)]] in [[Maharashtra]] state, elected in the [[2009 Indian general election]], and is the son of former guardian minister for [[Thane]] and NCP member [[Ganesh Naik]].<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.indianexpress.com/news/tough-battle-ahead-for-thane-kalyandombivl/439108/|title=Tough battle ahead for Thane, Kalyan-Dombivli constituencies|date=2002-03-26|publisher=[[The Indian Express]]|accessdate=2009-04-22}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://navbharattimes.indiatimes.com/business/business-news/gold-future-prices-fall-due-to-sluggish-demand/articleshow/83034049.cms|title= कमजोर मांग से सोना वायदा कीमतों में गिरावट|website= Nav Bharat Times|language=hi |access-date=2021-03-28}}</ref>

==Education==
Naik's educational background has been a matter of some mystery and considerable controversy. According to an affidavit submitted to the Election Commission at the time of the 2014 Lok Sabha Election, he has a
12th pass from the Maharashtra board in Pune, received in 1995.

According to his official website as of 2009,

During his 2009 campaign, the title "Dr." was used by Naik in his campaign literature.
