Shashi Tharoor Flags Sharp Contrast: India's Peaceful Protests vs. Bangladesh Violence

• Congress MP Shashi Tharoor highlighted the stark difference between democratic protests in India and violent unrest in Bangladesh.
• Tharoor asserted that protests in India have remained peaceful, constitutional, with no violence or lynching, and authorities are capable of intervention.
• He condemned the mob lynching of a Hindu factory worker in Bangladesh, calling it an 'outrage' and stressing the victim was in police custody.
• Tharoor urged Bangladeshi authorities to control street violence, warning it undermines free and fair elections, suggesting army intervention if police fail.
• He dismissed diplomatic tensions as routine and rejected 'preposterous' claims linking India to Bangladesh's political violence.

Why It Matters: Tharoor contrasts India's peaceful dissent with Bangladesh's violent unrest, urging Dhaka to restore order.
