Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Monday filed his reply affidavit in the Supreme Court in which he said that he had no intention of violating any order or attributing any statement to the top court. The said statements, Gandhi said in his affidavit, were made “in Hindi in a rhetorical flourish in the heat of the moment”. In his affidavit, Gandhi maintained said that though he did not attribute any statements made by him to the court, he did maintain that there was some wrongdoing in the deal.
“The answering respondent would take this opportunity to reaffirm his stand and belief and that of his party that the Rafale deal is tainted transactions and a gross and brazen abuse of executive power and a leading example of corruption of the BJP government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” Gandhi said in his affidavit. The case is scheduled to be heard on Tuesday.
