THAROOR REFUSES TO FOLLOW CONGRESS LEADERSHIP … NOW TREATED LIKE A PUNCHING BAG …
The most interesting feature of Shashi Tharoor’s leaked letter to Congress president Sonia Gandhi, resulting in him being treated as a punching bag, is the huge importance the Congress president attaches to her party’s sustained disruption of parliamentary proceedings.
