THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Congress Working Committee (CWC) member Shashi Tharoor on Thursday said he has differences of opinion with some in the party leadership, but he is not going to speak about them in light of the bypoll in the Nilambur constituency.

Speaking to reporters here, Tharoor-- who came under attack from some party colleagues for supporting the Modi govt's stand following the Pahalgam terror attack -- said that the Congress, its values, and its workers are very dear to him.

He said he has worked closely with party workers for 16 years and regards them as close friends and brothers.
