Travesty of parliamentary democracy: Shashi Tharoor on suspension of MPs
Wednesday, 20 December 2023 Tharoor, who was himself suspended on Tuesday, said that with the suspension of so many opposition MPs, the history of parliamentary democracy has been "besmirched" in our country.

That is the dubious record being set in our Parliament this week," he said.
On the suspension of 141 opposition MPs, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor says, "This is a disgrace and a blot on our democracy..."

Congress leader Shashi Tharoor appears to be headed for a fourth consecutive term from Thiruvananthapuram Lok Sabha constituency. With only around 50,000 votes left to be counted, Tharoor has amassed a sizable lead of 11,281 votes over BJP leader Rajeev Chandrasekhar. After trailing by over 20,000 votes behind Chandrasekhar, Tharoor has regained the lead with a margin of over 11,000 votes. During the initial hours of counting, the fight between Chandrasekhar and Tharoor was neck-and-neck with each taking a lead of a few thousand votes.
