Congress MP Shashi Tharoor: 'Name we have given to alliance has got under government’s skin'

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor on September 16 reacted to Union Minister Pralhad Joshi’s statement that the opposition alliance is the 'Ghamandi' alliance. Tharoor said, "The arrogance of power has been very visible. So to apply 'Ghamand' to the opposition is a bit unnecessary and a bit futile because those who are arrogant are the ones who are in power. That's what we're seeing every day. I think that clearly, the name we have given the alliance has got under their skin and that's why they are reacting in this exaggerated way and even trying to privilege the name Bharat which is also both our names in the Constitution of India. So what is the problem with using either of them?" At the Congress Working Committee (CWC) meeting in Hyderabad, Tharoor said, "I think that there are two messages here. One is of course the new team, a new start... & the second is of course the elections in Telangana. That being in Hyderabad is a signal that the entire Congress party is taking this election very seriously. So both the messages I think are there. We have a national vision and we also have to try and help our colleagues in the state to do well."
