I being from Trivandrum was sceptical at first when I heard the news that Mr.Sashi Tharoor was going to be the candidate from Trivandrum. But gradually after seeing hearing his views on TV and good body language,I whole heartedly wished the he will win. A refreshing change from the usual khadar-walas.
Happy to see Shashi Tharoor winning the elections. I do beleive that he is a man of words. Rediff has given Shashi Tharoor lot of support coming out with multiple articles. Is this an example of how media makes a man / politician / media influence?
I was greatly disappointed when Ban Ki Moon pipped him for UN Secy General's post. Finally Kerala people have given him his rightful due. Shashi way to go
Congratulations Mr. Taroor for initiating the change. Hope you keep up this spirit and work for the state unlike the others who work for themselves and their few special people!!!
1ST I'D LIKE TO CONGRATULATE SHASHI FOR HIS HYSTORIC WIN IN KERALA,I WAS APPALED WHEN HE WITHDREW HIS NOMINATIONS FRM UN POST FOR GENRAL SECRATARY,I THOUGHT THIS MAN COULD HAVE BEEN OF GREAT USE IF AT ALL HE SETS HIS EYE ON INDIAN SOIL,I WAS SHOCKED WHEN SHASHI RETURNED TO INDIA DURING PRESIDENT ELECTIONS I WAS EXPECTING CONGRESS WOULD FIELD HIM AS NEXT CANDIDATE AS HE IS AN ABLE LEADER TO BECOME THE PRESIDENT OF INDIA..WE NEED SOME MORE LIKE SHASHI WE ALREADY HAVE FEW SOME MORE WILL BE ENOUGH TO FILL INDIA'S CAP WITH FEATHER ROUND THE GLOBE..
Women attacks, Pub attacks, Church attacks, Mosque attacks, Arson, rapes, murders, violence everywhere, Kandhamal, Gujarath genocide, Varuns hate and divsion oriented speech, polarising society in the name of culture and religion, Mocking decent man like Manmohan ..... BJP is eating its own shit now..
Shashi Tharoor is an intellectual with a difference. More men like him needed in Indian Politics today. Looking at credentials of average politician or a member of parliament, one feels disaapointed. It is people like Shashi Tharoor who kindle the small flame of hope in hearts of Indian populace. Bravo, keep it up, may you go on further in your political career and shoulder bigge responsibilities for the country. We are proud of you.
Fantastic achievement indeed from an avid reader of your articles. Hello Foreign Minister of India, please serve the nation well and be different from the criminals and total illiterates who rule the nation now.

Hope your English speaking abilities are better than your writing skills in that language. Never knew that speaking English was a criterion for becoming an MP. By the way, you're not hoping for a North Indian English accent, are you? Get a life, mate. Try travelling to an English-speaking country and see how your accent pans out. There may not be much difference after all between you and your "goo ood"-ly country cousins.
