Tharoor said that when the government sent him abroad as part of a multi-party delegation linked to Operation Sindoor, his party did not like it.

“You can speak to them and find out,” he said, without elaborating further.

India comes first, says Tharoor

Quoting India’s first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, Tharoor recalled the famous line: “Who lives if India dies.”

He said that when India’s security and global standing are at stake, national interest must come first.

He added that political parties may disagree, but when it comes to the nation, India must always prevail.

In response, India launched Operation Sindoor, a precision military operation targeting terror launchpads in Pakistan.
