| Kashmir indifferent to Patel-Nedous tie | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
New Delhi, March 23 : When Faisal Patel and Zainub Nedous tie the nuptial knot at New Delhi on Friday, a few persons from Kashmir will wish the newly weds a happy married life notwithstanding the claims of Muzaffar Ahmad Shah to the contrary notwithstanding. Shah, the son of former Chief Minister Ghulam Muhammad Shah happens to be Zainub’s uncle.
Faisal is an MBA from a foreign university and was born to Ahmed Patel, who hails from Gujarat and is political secretary and right-hand man of Congress president Sonia Gandhi. Zainub belongs to Jammu Kashmir's Nedous family. Wife of Sheikh Muhammad Abdullah belonged to this family.
Prime Minister, Congress chief Sonia Gandhi, former Chief Minister and the incumbent Chief Minister, Omar Abdullah are expected to attend the reception on Sunday.
Zainub, daughter of Omar Nedou, a Srinagar based hotlier is a communication officer in the Delhi office of the UNAIDS joint UN programme on HIV/AIDS. According to a former colleague, the couple have been in touch since their student days.
Akbar Jehan was the daughter of Michael Harry Nedou, an Austro-Swiss settler who married a Kashmiri Gujjar girl Mirjan. Harry's father Michael Adam Nedou had founded the Gulmarg hotel and several other hotels in undivided India.
Faisal will wear a sherwani designed by Tarun Tahilani and Zainub a lehnga created by Rohit Bal. A special Kashmir musical night will be organized on the eve of the 'nikah' here, reports said.
Faisal is likely to join politics the moment his father gives the much awaited nod. Senior Patrel, it is believed, is not in favour of his son joining politics now. Faisal, reports said is in the inner circle of Rahul Gandhi.
