Indian Congress leader Shashi Tharoor criticized Uttar Pradesh in a social media post, sparking backlash from the BJP.
Indian Congress leader Shashi Tharoor faced backlash from the BJP after sharing a post on social media about Uttar Pradesh in a Q&A format, which stated, "A state where uttar (answers) are known before the exam." Tharoor's comment on the post, "shandaar," and his use of the hashtag "#Pariksha pe charcha" were seen as a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's initiative to interact with students during exams. Several BJP leaders criticized Tharoor for stereotyping the state and accused him of having a "superiority complex."
