Member of Parliament (MP) for Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, Shashi Tharoor, had a "emotional and heartrending" conversation with the deceased CA Anna Sebastian Perayil's father, Sibi Joseph.

Anna's death due to excessive workload made headlines after her mother wrote a letter to the Chairman of Ernst and Young (EY) India, where Anna was working, about her toxic manager, stress and work.

Shashi Tharoor informed that in a conversation with Joseph, the latter suggested that he raise the issue of legislating through Parliament. "...a fixed calendar for all workplaces, whether in the private sector or the public, that would not exceed eight hours a day, five days a week..," informed the tweet Tharoor posted on September 20, at 10.11 pm.

"Inhumanity at the workplace must be legislated out of existence with stringent punishment and fines for offenders. Human rights do not stop at the workplace!," he stated in his tweet.

Tharoor vowed that he will raise the issue the first chance he gets in the next session of the Parliament.

The death of 26-year-old Anna, who died due to a cardiac arrest, has sparked conversations of toxic work culture, excessive workload and the stress at biga accounting firms and other companies as well.Member of
