'We want answers, not attacks': Shashi Tharoor backs Rahul Gandhi's 'vote theft' claims; joins INDIA bloc protest

IndiaTimes Monday, 11 August 2025 ()

Tharoor emphasised that the EC should prioritise clearing doubts about potential voter list manipulation and vote theft, rather than focusing on procedural formalities like demanding an oath or affidavit from Gandhi.
