India Pakistan Ceasefire: Shashi Tharoor DEFENDS Peace, Hits Back At Posts Comparing 1971 To 2025

As the Congress invoked Indira Gandhi's 1971 Bangladesh war leadership to criticize the Modi government’s ceasefire deal with Pakistan, senior leader Shashi Tharoor urged a clear-eyed view of history. Calling the 2025 scenario "entirely different," Tharoor said India needs peace, not endless escalation. He emphasized the importance of preventing protracted conflict, arguing that while retaliation against terrorism is necessary, risking national stability without clear goals is not. The comments mark a sharp political and strategic contrast to current government narratives amid rising border tensions. #ShashiTharoor #IndiaPakistan #Ceasefire #IndiraGandhi #1971War #PeaceOverWar #Congress #ModiGovt #BangladeshLiberation #TharoorSpeaks #ANI #PahalgamAttack #IndiaPolitics #TharoorOnPeace #BorderTensions #PakistanCeasefire #TerrorResponse #IndiaNews #CurrentAffairs #NationalSecurity #IndiaToday #WarAndPeace #TharoorInterview #PeaceTalks #KashmirIssue #NoToWar #SouthAsia #DiplomacyMatters #IndiaFirst #PoliticalDebate #ModiVsCongress Also Read Shashi Tharoor Slams Pakistan’s Ceasefire Breach With Shayari: 'Uski Fitrat Hai Mukar Jaane Ki...' :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/shashi-tharoor-slams-pakistan-s-ceasefire-breach-with-shayari-uski-fitrat-hai-mukar-jaane-ki-4150161.html?ref=DMDesc Tharoor Celebrates Evolution of Constitution Defenders from Historical Rejectors :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/descendants-of-constitution-rejectors-defending-it-tharoor-011-4149997.html?ref=DMDesc India-Pakistan Ceasefire: Congress Seeks PM-Chaired All-Party Meet, Leaders Hail Indira Gandhi's Era :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-pakistan-ceasefire-congress-seeks-pm-chaired-all-party-meet-leaders-hail-indira-gandhis-era-4149819.html?ref=DMDesc
