Congress Working Committee Member and MP Shashi Tharoor on Sunday missed an important meeting of the Congress's strategic group, led by Sonia Gandhi, regarding the winter session of Parliament.
However, Shashi Tharoor's office stated that he was in Kerala and was travelling back with his 90-year-old mother by a later flight.
It is important to note that due to campaigning in the local body elections, the General Secretary of the Congress, KC Venugopal, was also unable to reach Delhi for the meeting today.
