Rahul terms Sitharaman 'Rafale Minister', demands resignation

New Delhi, Sep 20 (IANS): Terming Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman the "Rafale Minister", Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Thursday demanded her resignation after former HAL chief T. Suvarna Raju refuted her claims that the state-owned aerospace and defence company did not have the capability to build the fighter jets.

"The RM (Rafale Minister) tasked with defending corruption has been caught lying again. The former HAL chief, T.S. Raju, has nailed her lie, that HAL (Hindustan Aeronautics Limited) didn't have the capability to build the Rafale," Gandhi said.

"Her position is untenable and she must resign" he said.

Gandhi's comment came amid a war of words between the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government and the Congress, after Sitharaman during an interview to a news channel claimed that the Bengaluru headquartered company governed under the management of the Indian Ministry of Defence was not competent enough to produce the aircraft.

    No one is going against the boss, otherwise one has to lose the chair. Kursi ki mohabbat insaan se bahut saare galat kaam karwati hai,,, and we all do this to save our chair/job in daily life.

    We had some bold ministers in past who preferred to resign rather supporting the wrong. I do not think we still have the these type of leaders now.

    She is the right person and you obviously don't like because she is blunt. She will remain as minister even for next term but may be with some other portfolio.

    When HAL can build a 25-tonne Sukhoi-30, a fourth-generation fighter jet that forms the mainstay of the air force, from raw material stage, then it is capable of building the Rafale too. Corrupt FEKU wants to gift the deal to Anil Ambani who couldn't even run a Telecom company successfully.

    RaGa. The defense minister was elected and has admin experience in various fields and your experience is only losing elections ,32 so far? . So either you file a law suit against the minister or else Its better you keep quiet. We are sick of your 'episode a week' fiasco. Your pre -scripted verbals outrages will only excite , anti nationals, JNU tukde gangs, award wapsi brigade, WB and Kerala communal minorities. The rest of India would just watch and lap it up as a funny episode of Mr, Bean of India.

    It will be prudent for the Gov to order a parlimentary probe into the Rafale deal or else each day that passes will reinforce the public perception of a Big Scam in this deal.
