Union Minister Kiren Rijiju said Congress MP Shashi Tharoor admitted to him in a conversation after the Parliament session that his party is "anti-women". "Tharoor said that Congress may be anti-women, but no woman would consider Shashi Tharoor anti-women," Rijiju said, adding, "I replied that yes, I agree that no one would call you anti-women, but your party is anti-women."
