Secondly, every fact that Shri Rahul Gandhi and the Congress Party has spoken on pricing and procedure are completely false, & thirdly, Congress Party’s effort of raising these issues is to further delay a defence procurement so that India’s defence preparedness further suffers.

In a Facebook blog, the finance minister claims that the Congress has launched a false campaign “on Rafale aircraft deal based on peddled untruth has been casting a cloud on the Inter-Governmental agreement & seriously compromising national security.”
