Gulf Today
|April 01, 2025
Congress leader Shashi Tharoor, MP on Monday praised the Union government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi for implementing 'vaccine diplomacy' during COVID pandemic, embarrassing his party Indian National Congress for the third time in a row.
-
In an article published in The Week, Tharoor lauded India's vaccine diplomacy during the COVID pandemic as "a powerful example of international leadership rooted in responsibility and solidarity". He chose the topic on the occasion of the fifth anniversary of the national lockdown prompted by the COVID pandemic.
Tharoor's latest article comes amid the criticism he has been facing from within his party for praising the Modi government over a number of issues, including the Ukraine war and the PM's talks with US President Donald Trump. Interestingly, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, MP, had vehemently criticised the Modi government's vaccine policy during the pandemic calling it "discriminatory".
