Rafale should worry Pak, why Cong is unhappy: Shahnawaz
Pakistan should be worried about India acquiring Rafale fighter jets, not the Congress, BJP spokesperson Shahnawaz Hussain said here on Wednesday.
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh took symbolic delivery of the first Rafale aircraft in France on Tuesday.
“The Congress could not get Rafale jets for the country for one decade. They tried to put hurdles in its path when they were in Opposition,” Hussain alleged, speaking to reporters here.
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi had made alleged corruption in the Rafale deal a major issue during this year’s Lok Sabha elections.
On some Congress leaders criticising Rajnath Singh performing “shastra puja” of the aircraft, Hussain said worshiping weapons on Vijayadashami is our tradition.
