Tharoor has been attacking the government, alleging that it is indulging in divisive rhetoric and spreading hatred. "Far more dangerous than Omicron is `O Mitron`! We are measuring the consequences of the latter every day in increased polarisation, promotion of hatred & bigotry, insidious assaults on the Constitution & the weakening of our democracy," the former Union minister said in a tweet.
