"There are no. of holes in Rafale story. Last time PM listened to my speech & gave a long speech later, where he didn't talk for even 5 minutes on Rafale.

Congress President Rahul Gandhi in Lok Sabha attacked PM Modi on his latest interview and said, "Prime Minister in an interview said that no one is accusing him personally on Rafale. The entire nation is asking a direct question to the PM.
"Rahul Gandhi in Lok Sabha: the First pillar is processed, second is pricing and the third and most interesting is patronage. Senior officers of the IAF chose Rafale after long negotiations, IAF wanted 126 aircraft, why was the demand changed to 36?" he further added.
