“More than studies or games, I enjoyed participating in political activities. Despite being a child, I enjoyed attending a political meeting or rally of the Congress party. There is no specific reason which defines my entry into politics, but the Congress party also fascinated me and I just wanted to be a part of it in whatever way possible,” says Almas Khan.

Almas Khan background

Almas Khan, who comes from a humble background, rubbishes the misconception that money is required to pursue full-time politics. “I belong to a middle-class family and my father used to work as an Industrial Electrician with a company in Saudi Arabia. Being an active political activist for the last 12 years, I realised that one does not need any money to grow in politics. We just need to have dedication and strong commitment.
