'Media picked one sentence and criticised him': Congress on Shashi Tharoor's Israel-Palestine remark

Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala expressed support for Shashi Tharoor following criticism of his speech at a pro-Palestine rally. Chennithala commended Tharoor's participation and clarified that Congress stands with those suffering in Gaza.
