New Delhi: Shashi Tharoor, Minister of State for External Affairs, on Sunday night resigned from the Union cabinet after days of relentless controversy over his alleged involvement in the bidding for an IPL team.
The Prime Minister has forwarded Tharoor's resignation letter to the President with the recommendation that it be accepted. Tharoor quit after the core group of the Congress, which comprises top leaders of the party, met at the Prime Minister’s official residence in New Delhi and decided to seek his resignation.

Sources tell CNN-IBN that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Congress president Sonia Gandhi didn’t say much during the meeting. Tharoor met Singh after the meeting and was asked to resign.
Tharoor was accused of helping his friend, businesswoman Sunanda Pushkar, in acquiring a stake in the Kochi IPL team. Pushkar, who has a sweat equity valued at Rs 70 crore in the IPL Kochi franchise, announced earlier in the day that she had resigned from Rendezvous Sports World, which is one of the stakeholders in IPL Kochi.
Tharoor met the Prime Minister for about 45 minutes this morning during which is he is understood to have explained his position.

For those who knows what GPL stands for will understand Tharoor's position. He had been made a scapegoat...all the politicians are jumping up and down as if they are all dudh ke dhule he...Sabko hottie nahi milati he na.. mili to bhi officially delclare kar nahi sakte he na..and everybody must be thinking they missed the train of IPL where the could quadruple their black money.

The real truth is out now.

The money to a tune of INR 70 Crores invested by Shashi Uncle through Sunanda Aunty was black money.

This was the money made by Shashi uncle along with Koffi Annan while he was at UN from Saddam Hussain.

They had this food for oil program where many a USD were earned by these guys and then the monies were parked outside India.

There was one another Congress oldie who was also knocked out of Congress due to the same reason.

Luckily the oldie did not spill the beans that the money trail lead all the way to Sonia Maino's Janpath residence.

Lalit Modi's good time with the South African model is out on the streets now. May be a Nitts style sex video on Modi will follow.


The next guys in line are our Sharad Pawarji and also Prafful Patel saab.
