Tharoor meets PM for second time

New Delhi, Apr 18 (PTI) Indian Minister of State for
External Affairs Shashi Tharoor met Prime Minister Manmohan
Singh late Sunday night, the second time in a day, amidst
speculation that he may resign.

Tharoor drove into the Race Course residence of the
Prime Minister moments after Singh held a meeting of the
Congress Core group including Sonia Gandhi.
The meeting discussed continuance of the minister in
the wake of controversy over allotment of sweat equity of the
value of Rs 70 crore to his friend Sunanda Pushkar by the IPL
Kochi franchise.
First Gandhi met Singh one-on-one before the Core
Group discussions. Tharoor, whose removal has been demanded
by the Opposition on grounds of corruption, had met Singh at
noon to give his side of the story.
There was no no official word on all these meetings.
