Back to the basics

When Shashi Tharoor was the minister of state for external affairs, Jacob Joseph shot to fame as the officer on special duty in Tharoor’s office. He also courted controversy for provocative twitter messages against some Congress leaders who were vocal against Tharoor. But now, as Tharoor leads the life of an ordinary MP, Jacob has also left New Delhi’s corridors of power. Last heard, he was back to his business and leading a low-profile life in Singapore.
