Shashi Tharoor’s ‘cover fire” to BJP post Op Sindoor upsets Congress
Congress leader targets Shashi Tharoor over remarks praising Modi government
The skirmish amid the Congress and Shashi Tharoor escalated on Wednesday following the party leadership expressing displeasure over the MP’s remark in Panama that the BJP government conducted the first cross-border surgical strike.
The Congress’s stated position has been that six surgical strikes were conducted amidst the UPA regime, but those were never publicised.
However Pawan Khera, Congress spokesperson also posted an old interview of former PM Manmoha Singh in which he said that many surgical strikes were conducted under the UPA.
