Congress MP Shashi Tharoor has stirred controversy within his party by commending Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his energetic leadership and diplomatic strategies post-'Operation Sindoor.' Tharoor described Modi as a 'prime asset' on the global stage, emphasizing the need for greater support from home.

In a recently published article, Tharoor highlighted the diplomatic outreach as pivotal in consolidating India's position internationally. He underscored lessons from this period of public diplomacy, particularly the strength of national unity and clear communication in foreign policy.

Tharoor's remarks come amid ongoing criticism by the Congress of Modi's foreign policy, specifically regarding India's relations with Pakistan. His positive comments about the Prime Minister are likely to deepen rifts within the Congress party, especially as they challenge the collective stance against the government.
