Is Shashi Tharoor Innocent or Shamelessly Corrupt?

Ever since Shashi Tharoor become the MoS for Foreign Affairs with the GoI, he has been courting controversies after controversies. There has been many "Toostepites" defending him on account of his brilliant academic & Diplomatic career and were always willing to give a blind eye to his lapses. Always trying to defend him either as a misfit in politics or an innocent being framed by some jealous parties, despite his i) arrogantly calling 'Economy Class' (ie. used by most fliers in India and abroad), ii) inviting Saudi Arabia to become Interlocutor between India and Pakistan, while the declared stand of India has been to disallow intervention of any third party in the Indo-Pak relations and iii) finally, grossly misusing his office to benefit to the tune of Rs. 70/- Crores worth (equivalent to 25% Randeavous Sports which won the Kochi IPL Franchisee) as 'sweat equiry' to his lady-friend, whose management value has never been known to anyone. Now that he has been shown the door, how many of us still willing to defend him as innocent or call him corrupt like most other politicians. I for one who belives that he has been a corrupt, inarticulate and arrogant person – whether in politics or anywhere.
