IANS | New Delhi
Former United Nations Undersecretary General Shashi Tharoor, who ran unsuccessfully for the top post of the world body, may be inducted into Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's Council of Ministers, highly placed sources said.
The sources said Tharoor may be appointed Minister of State for External Affairs. "The Prime Minister is keen to make use of his diplomatic skills, vast experience and numerous contacts. He may induct him as a Minister of State in External Affairs," one source said.
Tharoor, who quit his UN post earlier this month, is believed to have met the Prime Minister ahead of his resignation. The 51-year-old Tharoor is likely to replace Minister of State for External Affairs Anand Sharma, who may be shifted to another ministry.

This is a good cover-up for Sonia and her oil deals or other sundry. He is neither a RS nor MP. Whole coterie of âinternationalâ anti-hindu is joining government.
Yesterday, Steven Colbert made a nice joke or reminder to Shashi about his parking tickets. I hope he pays himself not Indian Government.
