The late Congress veteran Ahmed Patel’s son Faisal Patel on Tuesday stirred a controversy by taking to Twitter to express his ‘disappointment’ with the Congress and indicate he is keeping political options open as he didn’t get any response from the party’s top leadership.
“Tired of waiting around. No encouragement from the top brass. Keeping my options open,” he tweeted. His father served as the political secretary of Congress president Sonia Gandhi.
The tweet, coming ahead of Assembly polls in Gujarat later this year, adds to the party’s problems in the State where it has seen desertions and defections.
