Senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor on Monday slammed the circulation of photographs showing him with Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra, saying that it was “an act of cheap politics”. The Thiruvananthapuram MP said that the photographs were taken during Moitra`s birthday party, which was attended by around 15 persons, including his sister. He said that photographs were cropped before being shared on social media by trolls. Last week, Moitra had also reacted to the photographs saying that she was amused at seeing her photos circulating on social media and had accused the “BJP`s troll sena” of being behind it.
