Rafale had been taken away from HAL, and "now to complete the job, the suit-boot friend needs people who are in HAL. Without weakening HAL, this work cannot be done?" Gandhi said.

New Delhi: Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Saturday launched an attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, over demonetisation and GST and called him an “incompetent man who listens to nobody”. “He is an incompetent man who listens to nobody”, Gandhi wrote in a tweet. “Congress built the India growth story. Modi has used Demonetisation and the Gabbar Singh Tax to completely destroy it,” he said in the tweet. On Facebook, Gandhi took on the PM over the Rafale row and accused him of “weakening" the Hindustan Aeronautics Limited to help his "suit-boot" friend. His allegation came after a media report claimed that the defence Public Sector Undertaking Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), grappling with low finances, for the first time in years, has been forced to borrow money to pay salaries to its employees. "HAL does not have money to even pay salaries should not come as a surprise to anyone," Gandhi said in a Facebook post in Hindi. Rafale had been taken away from HAL, and "now to complete the job, the suit-boot friend needs people who are in HAL. Without weakening HAL, this work cannot be done?" he said. "Chowkidar (watchman)" is being true to his friendship, "he has nothing to do with the country's good or bad", he said. The friendship should continue, he said.
