Tharoor slams BJP for ‘attack’ on his office

Thiruvananthapuram, July 17: Congress leader Shashi Tharoor on Tuesday slammed the BJP for the attack on his office here by the party's youth wing activists over his remark that "Hindu Pakistan" would be created if the ruling party returns to power in 2019.

On Monday, the Yuva Morcha activists, shouting anti-Tharoor slogans, barged into his office and put up a banner that read "Hindu Pakistan" office. They also smeared black oil on his constituency office. Tharoor, however, was not present in the office when the incident happened.

Speaking on Tuesday at a protest march organised by the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF) near the Raj Bhavan against the callous attitude of the Kerala government on some of the burning issues of the state, Tharoor slammed the BJP. "It's been 24 hours since my office has been attacked and the visuals of those who were all present are also there, but no arrest has been made," Tharoor said on Tuesday, adding the BJP is answering him by unleashing goons.
