Tharoor hits back at 'zealots' over LoC remark
NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: Congress leader Shashi Tharoor, who is under attack from leaders within his own party for projecting India’s case as part of global outreach on Operation Sindoor, on Thursday
took a dig at his critics saying "I have better things to do.’’
"I don’t really have time for this…critics and trolls are welcome to distort my views and words as they see fit. I genuinely have better things to do. Goodnight,’’ Tharoor tweeted before he left Panama for Colombia to educate them about India’s policy of zero tolerance against terrorism. Tharoor earlier visited US and Panama.
He said that after a long and successful day in Panama, he had to wind up at midnight here with departure for Bogota, Colombia, in six hours.
He said his remarks were preceded by a reference to the several attacks that had taken place in recent years alone during which previous Indian responses were both restrained and constrained by "our responsible respect for the LoC and the IB’’.
Congress leader Udit Raj had on Wednesday criticised Tharoor calling him a "super spokesperson of the BJP.’’ His party colleagues Pawan Khera and Jairam Ramesh joined the offensive against Tharoor and retweeted Udit Raj’s comment.
