Shashi Tharoor Faces Questions from Son on Pakistan's Terrorism Role
Shashi Tharoor, a politician, was asked tough questions by his son, a journalist, about Pakistan's involvement in a terror attack.
Tharoor explained that he was in the US to discuss terrorism and that no country asked for proof of Pakistan's involvement.
He mentioned that India has strong reasons to believe Pakistan was involved, like the past, as they often deny things until there is solid evidence.
The delegation also met with US officials.
Shashi Tharoor led an all-party delegation to the US to highlight Pakistan's role in terrorism.
His son, Ishan Tharoor, questioned him about the Pahalgam terror attack during a press conference.
