Congress MP Shashi Tharoor termed the US military operation capturing Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro a 'momentous event' with serious implications for the international order. Reacting to the development, the Thiruvananthapuram MP observed that 'you don't see every day a country marching in and capturing the president of a sovereign nation'. Tharoor noted that 'international law and the UN Charter are not being observed in the old ways' and warned that a version of 'might is right' is prevailing in global affairs.

MNREGA Replacement Sparks Row As Tharoor Calls DR Ramji Bill Retrograde

MNREGA Replacement Sparks Row As Tharoor Calls DR Ramji Bill Retrograde

Dec 16, 2025, 05:58 PM IST

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor strongly opposed the proposed D.R. Ramji Bill in the Lok Sabha, warning that it represents a deeply regrettable and retrograde shift away from India’s commitment to its most vulnerable citizens. Tharoor argued that removing Mahatma Gandhi’s name from MNREGA is not a mere administrative change but an assault on the programme’s moral and philosophical foundation rooted in Gandhi’s vision of Gram Swaraj and “the last man first”. He also raised serious concerns over the proposed financial restructuring, which shifts 40 per cent of the burden to states, calling it fiscally irresponsible, a violation of federal principles, and a move that could render the scheme unworkable for poorer states. Tharoor further criticised provisions allowing the Union government to decide when and where the scheme operates, warning that this fundamentally alters the nature of a rights-based employment guarantee programme.
