S Tharoor Wants Foreign Minister Job, Pawan Khera 'Puppet': MS Aiyar, Again

Veteran Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar has stirred controversy once more, this time commenting on Shashi Tharoor's aspirations for the position of Foreign Minister. Aiyar, known for his candid remarks, referred to party spokesperson Pawan Khera as a 'puppet' in a scathing critique of the Congress party's current leadership dynamics. This incident has reignited discussions about internal party rivalries and the ongoing struggle for power within the Congress. Tharoor's ambition for the Foreign Minister role has been a topic of speculation, particularly as the party grapples with its image and strategy in the face of electoral challenges. Aiyar's remarks not only underscore the tensions among party members but also highlight the need for a cohesive leadership strategy as the Congress seeks to regain its footing in Indian politics. The implications of Aiyar's statements could resonate beyond party lines, affecting public perception and the party's electoral prospects in upcoming contests.
