New Delhi: Congress MP Shashi Tharoor took another jibe at the BJP government at the Centre, by introducing a new word – ‘anocracy’, through a sarcastic tweet on Sunday.
‘A word we’d better start learning in India: ANOCRACY. Form of government that mixes democratic w/ autocratic features, permits elections, allows participation through opposition parties & institutions accommodating nominal amounts of competition, but acts w/minimal accountability (sic)’, the Thiruvananthapuram MP tweeted.

The tweet came just a day after the Election Commission announced the poll dates for five states as Congress tries to revive its fortunes after several election setbacks over the last few years.
