Shashi Tharoor's Fresh Praise For Op Sindoor Deepening Rift With Congress?

Tensions flared as Shashi Tharoor, leading a parliamentary delegation on the Pahalgam terror attack response, praised the Narendra Modi government's anti-terror strikes, drawing the ire of Congress leaders. Jairam Ramesh distanced the party from Mr Tharoor's remarks while Udit Raj accused him of aligning with the BJP. Speculation is swirling about Mr Tharoor's future, with some seeing his independent stance as a bid for Kerala's leadership, others an exit signal. As Congress grapples with his global appeal versus party loyalty, the rift deepens.
