New Delhi: Congress MP Shashi Tharoor is known for his English language proficiency both in India and abroad. His precision in English and choice of words are always a topic of discussion. It is said that he often uses complex words that people cannot understand, and they have to resort to a dictionary to comprehend them. With a recent incident, Tharoor's name has once again come into discussion. This time, his English is debatable, and more interestingly, a Congress leader has also been advised on this matter.
Tharoor's influence is clearly visible in the conversation of a Congress leader
According to reports, a leader of the Congress party was speaking. During the conversation, he used several high-level English words. Another leader present there immediately stopped him. He humorously said, "It seems Shashi Tharoor's influence has now affected you too." However, he warned, "Don't use such English again and again, because it makes it difficult to reach the people, and it is detrimental in elections."
'If you speak English like Tharoor, you will lose'
The leader was giving advice humorously and seriously at the same time. He explained that in politics, it is important to converse in the language of the people. If a leader uses very complex English, the common people will not understand it. This creates a gap between the leader and the people. He further added, "If you speak English like Tharoor, people will feel that you are not connected with them, which can lead to defeat in elections."
