An angry Minister of State for External Affairs Shashi Tharoor today hit out at the media claiming that they had misreported his remarks on Jawaharlal Nehru and demanded that they issue a correction.

A day after his reported remarks at an academic seminar on international relations created a flutter in the Congress, Tharoor called a press conference in his office and said he was dismayed at the "inaccurate and tendentious reporting".
