Speaking to News 24 Correspondent, Sanjeev Trivedi about the FIR registered against Rahul Gandhi, Tharoor said that the matter shouldn’t have been dragged to court, it’s not right. He added that everyone (MPs) is disappointed as the parliament session couldn’t run smoothly and properly.
Tharoor said that considering the incident, even public has the right to express their disappointment on the matter. “There is no problem participating in the protest march outside parliament, but inside the Parliament, it was on the part of the government to talk to the opposition and resolve the conflict (Baba Ambedkar issue),” added Congress MP Tharoor.’
