है प्रीत जहां की रीत सदा
मैं गीत वहां के गाता हूं
भारत का रहने वाला हूं
भारत की बात सुनाता हूं
Hai preet jahaan ki reet sada
Main geet wahaan ke gaata hoon
Bharat ka rehne waala hoon
Bharat ki baat sunata hoon

In his cryptic post, Chandigarh MP shared a screenshot of a news report him and Tharoor being snubbed by Congress for the debte which started on Monday. Tewari also shared lyrics from the famous patriotic song from the movie Purab Aur Pachhim (1970).
"Hai preet jahaan ki reet sada, main geet wahaan ke gaata hoon, Bharat ka rehne waala hoon, Bharat ki baat sunata hoon. Jai Hind (I love the customs of that place, I sing songs of that place, I am a resident of India, I tell stories of India)," the Congress MP wrote.
According to the reports, Tewari wanted to participate in the debate and expressed his desire to speak and submitted a letter to the party for the same. However, Congress decided against fielding him. Congress MP Amar Singh, who was part of the delegation, was also not picked by the Congress to speak in the debate.
