Rafale deal: Congress will bring to justice all those who dishonoured: Rahul


New Delhi, Sep 25 (IANS): Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday took a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government over the controversial Rafale deal in which the offset contract was not given to public sector HAL, saying that his party will bring to justice all those who "dishonoured and stole."

"To every Air Force officer and jawan who has served India. To the family of every martyred Indian fighter pilot. To every person who ever worked for HAL (Hindustan Aeronautics Limited). We hear your pain. We understand how you feel. We will bring to justice all those who dishonoured and stole from you," Gandhi tweeted.

The Congress chief's remarks came amid the raging controversy over the purchase of 36 Rafale fighter jets from the French firm Dassault Aviation after former French President Francois Hollande claimed that the Indian government suggested a private firm for the offset contract.

Hollande has said that the Indian firm had been suggested by the Indian government for the Rs 30,000 crore offset contract and the French side including Rafale maker Dassault Aviation had "no choice" in it.

The Congress has been accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi of indulging in crony capitalism apart from violating procedures in the Rafale deal.

The Modi government has repeatedly said it was Dassault that chose its India partner for offsets and that the government had no say in the deal.

    Modi’s problem is his love for mega showmanship. Right from the 2014 Lok Sabha election campaign down to his public meetings on foreign soil, Modi loves to market himself at a scale no other public and private figure has dared to do till date. Such marketing requires a lot of money. After all, advertising is an exorbitantly expensive affair in these image-makeover times. The government ad budgets could fund official schemes like Swachh Bharat and Ayushman Bharat. But mesmerising electioneering needs mega funds that can come only from deals like Rafale. And, it requires Modi to rub shoulders with suit-boot wallahs, in turn making Narendra Modi government what the Congress President rightly calls a ‘suit-boot sarkar.Mr Modi, it’s high time you get rid of the taint that has smeared your reputation in the Rafale deal. Else, history may remember you as the ‘suit-boot wala prime minster’ who worked for well heeled industrialists such as Ambani, Adani and Choksi, rather than millions of Indian poor who voted you to power with much hope, but within four years of your reign, are feeling cheated.
    PM Narendra Modi is keeping mum amidst allegations coming thick and fast in the controversial Rafale deal. It’s high time for the Prime Minister to speak the truth and put the issue to rest.

    Let BJP form a JPC to go into Rafale deal to clear the cloud of corruption over the issue. The allegations of corruption seem to be real as Reliance had helped Modi in his 2014 LS election expenditures in a very big way and that is why PM wanted to reward him back heavily.

    You are talking as if OROP is already in force, courtesy Modi. And, as if GST was favoured by opposition when Congress was ruling. GST was Congress' baby, ruthlessly opposed then by BJP but now implemented by BJP. You can see what a cheat BJP is.

    If BJP created anything, its Demonetization. Everything else that is running in the country (of-course apart from high fuel price) is there since Congress time.

    If you claim GST is a khangress idea why they failed to introduce? Because the GST suggested by UPA was not rational and confusing and States were not getting their legitimate dues. But GST suggested by NDA is introduced with the consent of all States including khangress ruled states. If now you ppl talk against GST why ur State Govts agreed for GST there was no compulsion. All nautanki and dombarata by chaddiless supporters

    Saying this, Modi came to power but proved zero.

    He will lose the chance if he does not correct his perception soon, because whatever India was on May 2014 (not after that), was because of Congress. Whatever mess it is in, is because of non-congress Govt.

    Please you do not break your head.
    India is facing two enemies and we boast about jumping on PAK and fight against China. Do think we can fulfil our commitment. At least with 126 latest jet fighters can show cause PAK to stop meddling with India. PM never voiced his anger and we have a lady defense minister who thinks long tongue will make a difference. Juwan’s are dying on a daily basis and where is India's might sleeping. Pass the two great Modi Saab. Things will not change only by raising voice. Let it loud and clear.
    Courage is not only because 56" chest but with an Iron lady like late Indira Gandhi. She divided PAK and created Bangladesh.

Your comments proves again and again that, you are fit to be a Andh Bhakth only. Modi has not only brain washed his bhakths, he has brain washed his ministers and spokespersons also.
