Rafale deal: PM Modi responsible for delay in delivery of the fighter jets, says Congress

New Delhi : The Congress on Saturday alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is responsible for a delay in the arrival of Rafale fighter jets. Rahul Gandhi also said that the country witnessed his "monologue, fake bravado and narcissistic lies".

"Dear PM, Have you no shame at all? YOU stole 30,000 Crore and gave it to your friend Anil. YOU are solely responsible for the delay in the arrival of the RAFALE jets. 

"YOU are WHY brave IAF pilots like Wing Cdr. Abhinandan, are risking their lives flying outdated jets," Gandhi said on Twitter.

The Congress President's response came after PM Narendra Modi said the country was feeling the absence of Rafale and results would have been different if India had the fighter jets as he attacked the Congress for its tirade against his government over the aircraft deal.
