Faisal Patel, son of late senior Congress leader Ahmed Patel, has announced that he will not join active politics and continue to follow his father's legacy that was to work for the downtrodden and underprivileged.
"Finally decided-I will not be joining active politics. I will continue to work on my existing social initiatives in Health care, education and technology. Late Ahmed Patel ji's true legacy was working for the downtrodden and underprivileged. I pledge to continue doing so. #wemissahmedpatel," Faisal tweeted on Saturday.
