"Prime Minister Narendra Modi can go to jail in the case of Raphael," Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Friday made the claim for the first time in an exclusive interview with 'Hindustan' during the Air India visit to Belgaum from Surat.
The reporter asked him, "The prime minister told me in my interview that I had answered all the things in the case of Rafael. Why do not you ask them (Rahul Gandhi) what is the proof of their allegation? Now the Supreme Court has also stamped the validity of the Rafael deal. What will you say in this regard? '
Rahul Gandhi's answer was: "The documents that Rafael has printed on the 'Hindu' newspaper are clear that Narendra Modi was bypassing India's 'Negotiation Team' bypassing the price of Raphael directly from Dallas Company. On the basis of these same papers alone, Narendra Modi can go to jail. They further say, 'Hindustan's' Negotiation Team' is saying that the Prime Minister has bypassed our years of work. Will there be any reason to bypass? The only reason could be- corruption. Modi has not said anything about those papers till date.
In response to the question, 'If you come to power, what will you investigate?' Rahul Gandhi says, 'The law of the country will do its job. Defense purchase system, but it has been neglected. Defense Minister says that I do not know (in this regard). Officials of the Ministry of Defense say that the Prime Minister himself is negotiating. This is a crime. '
Rahul Gandhi also emphasized during this conversation - "The President of France says that during the meeting with Narendra Modi, I bet that the company of Rafael's offsetting contract Anil Ambani Ji has to go. The Rafael ship of 526 million will be purchased for more than 1600 million and it will not be made in India too. "Can this behavior be nationalist?
