Amid the escalating attack against Rahul Gandhi over his remarks in UK, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor on Monday came out in his support and said that there is nothing for which former needs to apologise.
While talking to mediapersons in the Parliament premises, Tharoor said, "This is blatant kind of politics because Rahul Gandhi didn't say what he's accused of. He specified that 'we'll solve issues internally and just want everyone to be aware, Indian democracy is global public good'. There's nothing that he needs to apologise for."
