Congress Crisis Tired of waiting, keeping options open: Late Congress leader Ahmed Patel's son Faisal ahead of Gujarat polls
Ahmedabad/IBNS: Months ahead of the Gujarat assembly elections, late Congress leader Ahmed Patel's son Faisal Patel has expressed his frustration over his party's top brass saying he is "tired of waiting around" and hence "keeping options open".
Faisal tweeted, "Tired of waiting around. No encouragement from the top brass. Keeping my options open."

Ahmed Patel, who was one of the tallest leaders of Congress, was a close aide of Congress president Sonia Gandhi.
With Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)'s aggressive campaigning in Gujarat, Faisal's next step will be noted to see whether he jumps the ship.
Faisal's tweet comes on a day Sonia Gandhi called for unity at all levels of his party.
Speaking at her weekly meeting with party MPs, Gandhi said as quoted by NDTV, "I am very well aware how disappointed you are at the recent election results. They have been both shocking and painful."
"Our dedication and determination, our spirit of resilience is under severe test. Unity at all levels of our vast organisation is of paramount importance and speaking for myself, I am determined to do whatever is needed to ensure it," she added.
