Yesterday many news agencies (Print/online both included) carried the news quoting Shashi Tharoor that “If BJP win in 2019 India will become Hindu Pakistan”
Well, the idea is neither original nor new. Just second page of Google search you will find a Quora post from 2015.
But there was one from last year in which Shashi was involved directly. And what more Shashi Tharoor had tweeted about it himself.
Here you will find Shashi Tharoor is actually defending India saying it will not become Hindu Pakistan. But within a year Shashi changed his mind turned around 360 degrees and said exactly opposite what he said last year.
But it has come as no surprise to me.
Look with whom he has exchanged the idea. Hina Rabbani-Khar, a Pakistani politician. Remember Meher Tarar? Another Pakistani, whom Shashi Tharoor’s wife Sunanda accused of influencing her husband? So is it surprising that Shashi Tharoor now toe the line stated by his master (in this case mistress) from Pakistan? Especially when Shashi Tharoor is out on bail in the case of the tragic death of his wife? Is it possible that he was forced to change his stand on India becoming Hindu Pakistan by some outside forces? Is it possible that outside forces may have influenced him to finally propagate the Pakistani propaganda which Hina Rabbani-Khar was stating a year earlier?
I must draw the attention of the readers to one interesting fact though. (This was originally posted by Marathi Blog-writer Bhau Torsekar in his today’s blog called Jagata Pahara)
Nepal in 2015, under communist party’s rule, decided to change its constitution from the Hindu Nation to a Secular nation. And among all people who oppose this were Muslims. Their argument was that “If Nepal became secular it will open gates for Christian missionaries. That will be bad for us minorities. It is better as the Hindu nation because Hindus do not convert.”

Mr. Shashi Tharoor even if India became Hindu Rashtra “It will never be Hindu Pakistan” (as you, yourself have stated on 30th July 2017)
