Rajdharma: France govt is lying over aircraft price in Rafale deal, says Congress

Amidst uproar by the opposition over Rafale deal, the Rajya Sabha has been adjourned till 2:30 PM. The issue continued to disrupt the last day of the Parliament's monsoon session with the joint opposition mounting attack on the Narendra Modi-led government.
As the day began, several opposition parties held a protest near the Gandhi statue inside Parliament over the Rafale deal.

Former Congress president Sonia Gandhi also joined the protestors. Holding placards, Members of Parliament from various opposition parties, like Congress, Communist Party of India, Rashtriya Janata Dal and Aam Aadmi Party, raised slogans demanding a Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) be formed to probe the purchase of Rafale fighter planes from France.
