Congress leader and Thiruvananthapuram MP Shashi Tharoor slammed the Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post’s decision to lay off his son, Ishaan Tharoor, as part of a global round of over 300 journalists. However, he deleted the post later and reshared a post reading, "Nobody better -- or even equal to -- Ishaan in his domain of international affairs synthesis and analysis".
