Deplorable, shameful: Tharoor as Munawar says 'goodbye' after cancelled shows

Congress MP Shashi Tharoor reacted to the post of comedian Munawar Faruqui who hinted at quitting after claiming that 12 of his shows were cancelled in the last two months. "This is deplorable. Stifling freedom of expression takes many forms but threatening a stand-up comedian's venue is petty and shameful," said Tharoor. "I'm done! Goodbye!" said Faruqui on Sunday.
