Shashi Tharoor recently questioned the silence of the Indian-American politicians on US-India issues like trade and H-1B and condemned the silence of the Indian-American diaspora. Hindu American Foundation chief Suhag A Shukla strongly reacted to that and said Indian politicians like Tharoor should not have such expectations from the diaspora as there are lobbyists for this particular work. "The Govt of India does not ask our approval for its oil policy or import duties, and so @shashitharoor and the GOI shouldn't be expecting us to champion their sovereign policy decisions with the US government. They can hire lobbyists for that," Shukla wrote, defending the silence of the Indian-origin politicians in US Congress. "Maybe walk in our shoes before you criticize us," Shukla wrote
