Shashi Tharoor Responds to CJP's Saurav Das Amid PM Modi's Temple Visit
Congress MP Shashi Tharoor responded wittily to Cockroach Janta Party co-convener Saurav Das's attempt to provoke him over a video of Prime Minister Narendra Modi praying at a Delhi temple. Das referenced Tharoor's past remarks and ornate language to elicit a reaction, but Tharoor denied understanding the bait and asked for clarification. Modi's temple visit marked his 25 years in public office, during which he prayed for the nation's well-being. The exchange highlighted Tharoor's measured approach amid political tensions.
