There is a situation of turmoil within the Congress regarding mp Shashi Tharoor. The party has already said that Tharoor has crossed the Laxman Rekha.
Congress Action Against Shashi Tharoor
Operation Sindoor was launched after the terrorist attack in pahalgam on april 22, 2025, and the all-party delegation formed to expose pakistan on the issue of terrorism is being discussed in political circles. There is a special discussion about congress mp shashi tharoor because when the government asked for names from the party, Shashi Tharoor's name was not in that list, but the government has put the responsibility of the delegation going to America on his shoulders.
On the matter, the congress says that shashi tharoor is walking on the anti-party line. There is a constant discussion in the media that congress can take some strict action against him. However, ABP news knows from sources that for now, the party will not take any action against him. At least till the kerala elections, there is no chance of any action being taken against him.
What does shashi tharoor have to say
On accepting the government's invitation, shashi tharoor said that he is proud that the government chose him to present India's point of view. I immediately agreed. He also said that no kind of politics should be seen in this. Apart from this, out of the names sent by the congress, the government has added only one name to the delegation, regarding which the congress mp said that this is a matter between the party and the government.
What did jairam ramesh say
On the matter, congress General Secretary jairam ramesh, without taking the name of shashi tharoor, took a dig at him and said that being in the congress and being of the Congress... there is a huge difference these days. Apart from this, he also hinted that MPs should listen to their conscience. He also said that in a democratic system, when individual MPs are sent as part of an official delegation, the MPs should take the consent of the party.
