Tharoor at it again! But this time, he defines the word

The word 'snollygoster' understandably pointed towards Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar who broke alliance with the RJD and joined hands with BJP.

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor has come up with yet another difficult word on Twitter, but this time he has described the meaning and origin of that word.

"Word of the day! Definition of *snollygoster*. US dialect: a shrewd, unprincipled politician. First Known Use: 1845. Most recent use: 26/7/17," the Congress MP tweeted on Thursday.
