Poonawalla Seeks Tharoor's Apology Over Controversial X Post After India's Win

By IANS News July 07, 2024 • 22:12 PM View: 1026

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor: Congress MP Shashi Tharoor sparked the BJP's ire with his recent X post, criticising the BCCI for its "arrogance" in sending a squad without top players for the ongoing T20I series in Zimbabwe.

Tharoor's remarks followed India's first defeat to Zimbabwe in the series opener, though India secured a strong victory in the second T20I.

This provided the BJP with an opportunity to launch a vigorous counterattack against Tharoor and the Congress.
