Congress MP Shashi Tharoor often has people reaching for their dictionaries with his use of long and obscure words - but he may have met his match in this teenager from Kerala. Tharoor's incredible vocabulary has earned him a number of fans, but there are some English words that even he has never heard of. Diya, a student of class 10 from Idukki, introduced him to some such words when the parliamentarian made a surprise appearance during a Club FM show featuring her in conversation with RJ Rafi.
Club FM is a private FM radio station in Kerala. The radio station recently hosted Diya in a Zoom segment with RJ Rafi to showcase her prowess in English.
