Centre's affidavit on Rafale conceals more than it reveals: Congress | Master Storke (13.11.2018)

Trashing the Centre's defence of the Rafale deal made before the Supreme Court, the Congress on Tuesday said the decision to buy the French jets was made in violation of Defence Procurement Procedure (DPP) and the process was structured subsequently to legitimise it.

A day after the Modi government made public a redacted version of its affidavit to apex court detailing the decision to purchase 36 fighter jets from France's Dassault, the Congress raised several questions over the procurement including prior approval from the Defence Acquisition Council (DAC).
