‘O Mitron’ far more dangerous than ‘Omicron’: Shashi Tharoor

Jan. 31: Taking a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s popular phrase ‘Mitron’ that he uses in his speeches to address the nation, senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor on Monday said, ‘O Mitron’ is far more dangerous than ‘Omicron’.

Taking to his twitter handle on Monday, Tharoor wrote, “Far more dangerous than Omicron is “O Mitron”! We are measuring the consequences of the latter every day in increased polarisation, promotion of hatred & bigotry, insidious assaults on the Constitution & the weakening of our democracy. There is no “milder variant” of this virus.”

Far more dangerous than #Omicron is “O Mitron”! We are measuring the consequences of the latter every day in increased polarisation, promotion of hatred & bigotry, insidious assaults on the Constitution & the weakening of our democracy. There is no “milder variant” of this virus.
