Shashi Tharoor skips Modi's swearing-in due to non-invitation, choosing India-Pakistan T20 match instead.
Congress leader Shashi Tharoor said he would watch the India-Pakistan T20 World Cup match instead of attending Narendra Modi's swearing-in ceremony, as he had not been invited. Modi is set to take oath as PM for a third term, equalling Jawaharlal Nehru's feat. Tharoor praised the tradition of inviting neighboring countries to the ceremony, but noted that this year there is one less invitee, as Pakistan was not invited.
