'Media picked one sentence and criticised him': Congress on Shashi Tharoor's Israel-Palestine remark
Saturday, 28 October 2023 Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala expressed support for Shashi Tharoor following criticism of his speech at a pro-Palestine rally. Chennithala commended Tharoor's participation and clarified that Congress stands with those suffering in Gaza. Tharoor had referred to Hamas as a terrorist group and criticized Israel's air strikes in Gaza. Chennithala also called for the state government to halt the Keraleeyam project, which he believed to be corrupt and a political propaganda campaign.
Congress MP Shashi Tharoor says, "... Budget of health and education ministries have been reduced, so I asked them the reason. There is no politics in this. Two states have been given favourable treatment to satisfy their coalition partners. We know this is how it works and we also have the right to protest against it... I am happy for the people of Bihar for getting such a generous package. It is a very big deal... 3 Congress and 1 DMK Chief Minister said they would not attend the NITI Aayog meeting because there was nothing for their states in the budget... Maybe Mamata Banerjee has an issue which she wants to discuss..."

The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas has dismissed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s vision for a “future” Gaza Strip, excluding the resistance group from governance, as mere “delusions.” The remarks came in a statement from Hamas on Wednesday, following Netanyahu's speech to the US Congress. In his address, Netanyahu outlined a self-proclaimed vision for Gaza, claiming the Israeli regime aimed to “eliminate” Hamas through an ongoing military campaign. This conflict, which began on October 7, has resulted in the deaths of at least 39,670 Palestinians, predominantly women and children, without achieving the stated goal of defeating the resistance.
