Let us embrace this symbol from past to affirm values of our present: Shashi Tharoor on Sengol
Congress leader Shashi Tharoor said that the positions taken by the government and opposition on the Sengol row can be reconciled, and called for embracing the sceptre as a symbol of India's past values. Tharoor said that the government argued the sceptre embodied sanctified sovereignty and rule of dharma, while the opposition argued sovereignty of India abides with the people and their representation in Parliament.
