Shashi Tharoor defends his article on Kerala’s growth following criticism from UDF

Thiruvananthapuram, 17/2: Defending his recent article in an English daily that stirred a political controversy, Congress MP Shashi Tharoor has clarified that not highlighting the industrial advancements made during the previous UDF regime was not intentional.

In a late-night Facebook post in Malayalam, he said: “The main focus of my article was the figures presented by the current Industry Minister, who stated that the CPI(M)’s general policy had not been industrial investment.”
