Standing at Oxford, in front of British students and people, and delivering this. What a man!

It's beyond just English; it has more to do with the ability to think and deliver with the right Punch! Shashi Sir, You are a University of English & Knowledge!

[Pritam]

The only intellectual person in entire Congress. Salute to Mr. Tharoor. 🙏

Even as a Pakistani, this feels so good to hear. Hats off to a man like him!!!

Brilliant speech. Every student in schools and colleges should listen to this. When i was in school, we were asked to write an essay on advntages and disadvantage of British rule in India. I wish i had this wealth of knowledge at that time.

As a German-born I know how important it is to accept and deal with the entire national history. We can't pick and choose the good parts of our histories and for the rest claim - "oh, I wasn't even born then". That would be ridiculously wrong.
It makes us feel better if we become aware of and accept all that really happened before we were born.

Politics aside, Mr. Shashi Taroor delivers facts effortlessly, as if he was an eyewitness.

That's why it's advised to give your precious vote to an "Educated" "Intellectual" and "Righteous" person.👍
