‘My attitude has been…’: Shashi Tharoor on praising PM Modi's US visit
By : Sandhya
Congress Lok Sabha MP Shashi Tharoor on Saturday responded to criticism over his praise for Prime Minister Narendra Modi's US visit and Kerala's Left Democratic Front government. “For 16 years, I have been in politics. My attitude has been that when somebody in the government, whether it's our government or some other party's government, does the right thing or does something well, one should acknowledge and praise it, and when they do something badly, one should criticise it”.
“If I were to praise all the time, no one would take me seriously. If I were to criticise all the time, no one would take me seriously either...There's got to be some give and take in democracy.” The Congress MP also said that while there have been outcomes in favour of the Indian people, some questions about PM Modi's Washington visit still remain.
