NEW DELHI: Congress has slammed party MP Shashi Tharoor over his praise for Prime Minister Narendra Modi .

"Shashi Tharoor has a habit of making untimely and irresponsible comments, Congress does not share his views at all," Congress leader PC Chacko said on Friday.

Shashi Tharoor had on Thursday said that he was "impressed by Modi congratulatory tweet" and it was "gracious" of him to "reach out" to him after his win in the Lok Sabha polls.
