Congress leader Shashi Tharoor staunchly defended the dynasty politics, asserting it is ingrained within India’s cultural fabric and claiming its prevalence not only within the grand old party but also within the ruling BJP. Tharoor claimed that except for the top few leaders, all the ministers and MPs in the BJP are sons or daughters of other senior BJP officials.
