Cong questions govt’s silence after French authorities order probe into Rafale deal

Congress on Sunday questioned the Central government’s silence after French authorities ordered a probe into “corruption and favouritism” into the Rafale deal. Congress alleged that national security is not the government’s priority, unlike previous governments.

Addressing a press conference, Congress national spokesperson Pawan Khera said, “Every successive government has always prioritised and taken pride in our National Security Policy. Although the Modi government makes loud song and dance about national security, on the other hand, it does everything under the sun to undermine India’s security interests when it comes to filling the coffers of its corporate friends.”
