Devil's Advocate :: 1/5 :: Shashi Tharoor :: PAK'S N-ARMS IN SAFE HANDS !?

Have President Obama's Af-Pak plans cast a shadow over Indo-US relations and perhaps introduced an element of tension between India and Pakistan? That is the key issue Karan Thapar( http://connect.in.com/karan-thapar/profile-159263.html ) discussed in this week's Devil's Advocate with the Minister of State for External Affairs, Shashi Tharoor( http://connect.in.com/shashi-tharoor/profile-656.html ).......

.....Shashi Tharoor: But the point is that we are not the US and we don't have to agree with everything they say and the way they do it, but this particular speech had nothing to do with us. The only thing is that when pressure is eased on the al-Qaeda and Taliban( http://connect.in.com/taliban/profile-522879.html ) in Afghanistan and Pakistan, it adds to the pressure on us and therefore it is a good thing for us that that aspect of the problem is dealt with and those people are left on the backfoot.......

Shashi is a v intelligent man. Maybe he will become PM of India one day.

[lunatickerala]

Wrong. Soon he will get fed up with the corrupt Indian politics and leave politics to what he is good at - writing. His cheerful smile and enthusiasm not on his face anymore. There are villains in congress itself who will never allow clean people like Tharoor to progress. Wait and see.

@ptramjoshi ys he is a very intelligent intellectual self made man.

RECENTLY KAPIL SEBAL REQUESTED HOLLYWOOD TO DELETE THE ROMANTIC SCENE BETWEEN JAHARWAL NEHRU & LADY MOUNTBATTEN " INDIAN SUMMER"

THE MOVIE INDIAN SUMMER IS A HISTORICAL FACTS & NARRATIVE OF INDIA

HISTORIANS HAVE REJECTED SUCH INCURSION BY INDIA AS TEXT AND PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE SPEAK THE TRUTH OF PARMOUR RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TWO HISTORICAL FIGURES.

@skylark304 I don't think that Gandhi was at all interested in being a politician.

[Aaronthegreatest]

@ptramjoshi I was thinking the same thing. He's apparently in the national assembly now so I'm sure he's got his eye on it.

[Aaronthegreatest]

This host is so weird XD He's offended because Obama didn't promise to take care India's terrorist problems as well? The US isn't a bloody pro bono operation here.

[Aaronthegreatest]

@armaan923 Don't bet on it.

I just love this (Tharoor) guy. He has successfully dodged Karan's fusillade. I loved this talk battle of two beautiful minds.
