Congress President Rahul Gandhi has launched another scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the Rafale fighter jets deal.
Addressing the media in New Delhi, the Congress president has demanded a probe into the Prime Minister’s Office making alleged parallel negotiations on the Rafale deal.
Rahul Gandhi also mocked the government’s claim that documents stolen from the Defence ministry were used by a leading national daily for a report on the Rafale deal.
Gandhi alleged that the government’s submission in the Supreme Court meant that it was accepting that the report, which alleged that the PMO was carrying parallel negotiations on Rafale deal was true and that related documents were in possession of the defence ministry.
Meanwhile, the Centre has slammed Congress President Rahul Gandhi over his Rafale deal remarks. Central Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad has said that the Congress President has been spilling blatant lies over the Rafale fighter jets deal.
