On Wednesday, the Kerala Congress leaders Oommen Chandy, Ramesh Chennithala and VM Sudheeran said that they would ask the high command in Delhi to act against Shashi Tharoor for praising various initiatives by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and thereby hurting the sentiments of party workers.

In response to the Kerala Congress' decision, Tharoor tweeted, "Delighted to learn KPCC is preparing a detailed report. That means they might finally actually read what I wrote instead of oral summaries."
