THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: MP Shashi Tharoor said that he will contest from Thiruvananthapuram itself in the Lok Sabha elections if the party says so. Tharoor also told the media in Thiruvananthapuram that the election works have started.

'I will contest in Thiruvananthapuram if the party says so. I thought I would give away the Thiruvananthapuram Lok Sabha seat to someone else but I changed my mind after seeing the situation.' Tharoor also pointed out that there is a need for a change in governance at the national level.

Tharoor also expressed his belief that even if Modi contests in Thiruvananthapuram, he will win. "I was not 100 percent determined to contest in Thiruvananthapuram. There was doubt as to whether to contest in the Parliament or some other election, but a decision was reached in the national context. Will contest in Thiruvananthapuram itself if the party decides', Tharoor said. Tharoor pointed out that the BJP is injecting communal poison into the country, prefacing the remark against Danish Ali in Parliament.
