NEW DELHI: In a show of camaraderie-ship, rarely seen in Indian politics, Congress leader Shashi Tharoor on Friday said that the fact that Prime Minister Narendra Modi, hailing from humble origins, could rise to the most powerful office is a tribute to Indian democracy and should make all of us proud.Reacting to a tweet questioning claims that PM Modi was a tea-seller, the Congress leader said instead of focussing on these "irrelevant details", the people of the country should be proud of their Prime Minister's achievement."I think we should take Narendra Modi’s word for this. The fact that a person of humble origins has risen to the most powerful office in the land is a tribute to India’s democracy and something all Indians can be proud of. The details are irrelevant," he tweeted.It is widely claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi's father sold tea at a tea stall near Vadnagar railway station. In his early years, he too lent a hand to his father at the tea stall.
