Congress president Rahul Gandhi is expected to address media on Rafale fighter deal in the national capital. The press brief comes a day after he accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of being directly involved in the deal with France by running a parallel negotiation then. The Congress has intensified its attack against PM Modi and the Bharatiya Janata Party after a media report said that the Defence Ministry was against the deal. ‘The Hindu’ report published the ‘note of dissent’ that was recorded on November 24, 2015 on a note prepared by SK Sharma, Deputy Secretary (Air-II), and endorsed by the Joint Secretary & Acquisition Manager (Air) and the Director General (Acquisition) in the Ministry.
