Shashi Tharoor slams Opposition over Parliament disruptions
Dec-05-2025

Congress leader Shashi Tharoor took strong exception to continuing disruptions by Opposition benches in Parliament and suggested that MPs have been elected to represent their voice, not cause ruckus in the biggest democratic platform of the country.

Shashi Tharoor said, ‘I have said this from the very beginning. My party leaders, including Sonia Gandhi, know this very well. I may be the lone voice in the party, but I have no doubts that people have elected me to represent them in parliament, not just to shout and create a ruckus. They have sent me to use my intelligence to speak for the nation and speak for them’.

The Congress is expected to issue a strong rebuttal to what appears as one of their own toeing a pro-BJP line on the greatest national platform for democracy. Tharoor has courted controversy in the past over actions that include praise for the Prime Minister and in matters of national security.

The parliament has been seeing disruptions over multiple issues since the Winter Session started last Monday, including over the Opposition seeking discussion on the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the voter lists and the flight chaos.
