Openness of one's views get a bash here as happened in case of Jaswant singh. I believe tharoor's remarks might have been misunderstood.

This issue has been blown out of proportion by the Congress party. Anyone speaking against the "Prince" (Rahul Gandhi) clearly has become sore point for Mr. Tharoor. His comment was not made toward the nation, but only one person. Clearly, Congress of 1947 and Congress of 2009, nothing has changed.

Anyone speaking against the "RAJA" will be sacked. And that "RAJA" will take high morale ground.

I was also surprised @ the reaction of BJP on this. Instead of supporting Tharoor they have gone on supporting the Congress.

Well, I dare say Are we really democracy?

I do not believe in GOD. But may LORD save this country from people like Manish Tiwari and Jayanti Natrajan and ofcourse the Congress party.

The persons who asked tharoor resignation I am sure they don't know what happened there.ALso I don't think "cattle class" or "holy cows" are ugly words.Just take his statement in good sense.WHy making these controversies.Tharoor is the only indian mister who still keep touch with people through twitter like site or his own website.The politicians just ask his resignation only because they are prejudice to tharoor.

Why so much fuss over "Cattle Class" comments by Shashi Tharoor. Does airlines not treat passengers like cattle. So much so that some of them did not even used to serve water and DGCA had to order them to do so. Is there no place in this cyberage life to indulge into little bit of humor. After all Shashi Tharoor did not offend or insult any individual. Indian Government is at the verge of losing one of its most young, charming and experienced minister. Is it that big deal? It is shame on people who are making mountain out of mole.
