Congress’s Tharoor praises Advani as statesman, sparking debate over historical legacy.
Congress MP Shashi Tharoor sparked controversy by praising former BJP leader LK Advani as a "true statesman" on his 98th birthday, arguing that no leader should be defined by a single event like the 1990 Rath Yatra.
Tharoor emphasized Advani’s decades of public service and called for balanced historical judgment, comparing the stance to how Nehru and Indira Gandhi are not reduced to their crises.
The Congress party distanced itself, stating Tharoor speaks for himself, while critics accused him of downplaying the yatra’s role in communal tensions and the 1992 Babri Masjid demolition.
The exchange highlights ongoing debates over political legacy and historical evaluation in India.
