Shashi Tharoor Shares Amitabh Bachchan’s 2012 Post Amid Delhi Protest Row

Congress leader Shashi Tharoor has shared a social media post originally published by Amitabh Bachchan in 2012, amid the ongoing debate over police action during the CJP protests in Delhi. In the original message, Bachchan had said he was "pained and horrified" by the use of tear gas and water cannons against peaceful protesters in the national capital. Tharoor's decision to repost the message has brought renewed attention to the actor's earlier remarks.

The repost has generated significant discussion online, with many users drawing parallels between the 2012 post and the present situation. At the same time, others pointed out that Bachchan's remarks were made in a different context and noted that the veteran actor has not issued any public statement regarding the ongoing CJP protests or the recent police action in Delhi.
