Congress MP Shashi Tharoor will lead one of the seven delegations on India’s anti -terrorism stance. However, his name was not further named by his party. But the government has given him a chance to lead one of the seven delegations. Regarding this, Shashi Tharoor said that the leadership of my party has the right to express his opinion about my abilities or shortcomings, and I think it really has to explain them. I do not have to comment on this.

Tharoor said that I have been assigned this responsibility, it is an honor for me, and I will fulfill this responsibility in the same way that I have fulfilled every responsibility assigned to me in my long term, whether in the United Nations or in the Congress Party. There is a meeting of our Parliamentary Standing Committee on Monday and Tuesday on various issues including this special issue. He said that of course, I told him about the first call to the party, which came two days ago. I also told the Minister of Parliamentary Affairs that I think they would talk to the party leadership of opposition parties, and they assured me that they would do so. As I said, I felt completely appropriate that the country should unite on this particularly important issue.
The Congress MP said that of course, when the nation needs my services, I am available and I am available for my country. In my view, it has nothing to do with party politics. All this is related to what our country has suffered in recent times and we need to present a united front. It is a good reflection of national unity at a time when unity is important. He clearly said that it is an honor, when the country needs my services, I will be available.

The Congress on Saturday, after handing over one of the delegations visiting various countries from next week, said to Shashi Tharoor, on Saturday that the government is playing the game and working with a mischievous mentality. Party General Secretary Jairam Ramesh also said that only four leaders from the Congress have been given to the government in the names of Anand Sharma, Gaurav Gogoi, Syed Nasir Hussain and Amarinder Singh Raja Wading. He said that the government cannot include any of its MPs without consulting the party. He also said that it has been a good democratic tradition that MPs joining the official delegation seek permission from their party leadership.
