Whoever is reciting this report is an idiot . I don't understand why they make news for the sake of making a news . I am a proud indian that we have some good experienced litterate politician who has seen the world outside India . Also Why are you bothering his son , Its really takes some hardwork to reach to the time magazine post and can't be acheived by creating hypes like this . Star news , Its time to change and learn from other international media companies on how to broadcast news

This is an unnecessary controversy. Those politicians who are jealous of Tharoor's achievements are behind this. These politicians doesn't have the education, charisma, and abilities like that of Tharoor. In todays world we need politicians like Tharoor who can make India par with western countries.

What a stupid thing. Simply put such channels should be banned in India. Our media and the people of the cities and the villages should mature. This is a real shame that these newswallas make such a pathetic script and the same is reiterated thousand times and moreover most of the people love'em.I as an Indian feel ashamed of this thing. Mr. Tharoor never meant what has been telecommuted. This is shear utilization of people's ignorance towards the deep meaning of what has been said by Tharoor.

star news & aajtak r the most immature news channels in existence, The way they present their news with bollywood style playback music is so sickening. i'd say..." GROW UP".

That is what I think. Tharoor may be repenting his decision to join politics in India when he clearly was doing so well at UN. I hope the media grows stops glamorizing little things for the sake of money and grow some balls.

Give it a break you stupid media people. Get some real news to show to the people or keep shut.

No point digging a mountain out of a mole.

Sorry to note the hypocracy of the indian polity.Give us at least the comforts accorded to cattle on transshipment,instead of packing us like sardines in trains.Last month 2 trains starting from shashiTharoor's constituency was stranded at stations enroute ,u know why-the coaches would not move due to overweight,some passengers had to be detrained before it could proceed.After this treatment,to see& hear the haughtiness of these congress spokemen commenting over something said in jest is sic
