Unfortunately Tharoor has some dust to his hands... I doubt the internal party decision too, to go against Tharoor... as being flamboyant he is eating out the positions of the cabinet not making it realistic to senior politicians(who were in a way formed a line to ICU)also no were a better match to him....There was so much pressure on high command from the seniors that they have to make Tharoor show an exit way...

Dear Rajdeep ,

I’m a big supporter of BJP and NDA and I respect my leader like Advaniji ,Arun jaitly and you guys like P.Roy,Bharkha & especially you. I have been closely watching Mr.Tharoor the day he became minister.Let me frank many of our Politicians Jealous about shashi tharoor and actually he got trapped by Modi and BJP.He was a soft target. Mr.Tharoor was an invaluable asset and great brand ambassador for India on the global level. We the younger generation have no doubt about his sincerity and dedication. India need ministers like tharoor irrespective any political parties.We the Indian youths requests Dr.Singji to put him back.

There are many crooks in indian politics than Tharoor, all are happily sitting in high places - fellows are targeting tharoor because he is a South Indian and Malayalee, if it is somebody else - people will praise him and join him.

Shashi Tharoor no doubt is one of the right politian who could represent India globally. There is no person who can be a substitute for him. Our cheap politians in kerala does not have any courage to face the situations like this. They are worried about their own post and dance to the tune of the north indian or sr cong leaders. Why is OOOOmen Chatty & Rat Chatty Thalla, Cuuthakaran, M A Nakkyvas not opening their nasty big mouth now. They know to talk big in Kerala ,outside kerala they are worse than a mice.Its high time that all these out-dated selfish crooks to be kicked out Kerala politics.

Shashi tharoor might have lost his berth in ministry but he gained a lot more than that.He is a straightforward politician i think this is a temporary loss for him .After all investigation he will make a very strong comeback & Mr. Modi might be surviving for some short time but he will be the ultimate looser from this entire episode.More importantly shashi tharoor has the support of masses & it will keep growing for him because he is a good man not arrogant like lalit modi.

Dr. Shashi Tharoor an author, former Under Secretary General at UN, a junior minister for MEA with the UPA govt. and a victim of dirty Indian politics. He is a child in the corrupt Indian politics. He is hated by most of his colleagues because of his sudden ascend, eminence and elegance. He is never afraid of speaking out what is in his mind. That has made him a misfit in Indian politics. Dr.Tharoor has certainly bought the new era of politics in India. Hope he remains in Indian politics as people like him is the need of the hour.

jay1..dude..how many marks did you get in your 10th grade?..read about tharoor in wikipedia atleast. here is a quote from that.

"At the age of 22, Tharoor was the youngest person in the history of the Fletcher School to be awarded a doctorate. His doctoral thesis, "Reasons of State", is still required reading in courses on Indian foreign-policy making.."
