New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday asked his party colleagues not to stop or fear at the “corrupt” central government as truth with them at each step.
His statement came a day after French investigation journal Mediapart made a fresh claim that the alleged fake invoice was used that allowed French aircraft makers of Dassault Aviation to pay at least 7.5 million euros in the secret commission to an intermediary to secure Rafale’s agreement with India.
There is no reaction from the Ministry of Defense or Dassault Aviation in the latest report “When the truth is with you at every step, then what needs to be worried about? My Congress colleagues – continue to fight like this against the corrupt central government.
Don’t stop, don’t be tired, don’t be afraid , “Gandhi said in Tweet in Hindi, using the” #Rafalescam “tag.
According to Mediapart’s investigation, Dassault Aviation pays a kickback to an intermediary in Mauritius between 2007 and 2012.
Mediapart has reported in July that a French judge has been appointed to lead a judicial investigation “which is very sensitive to alleged corruption” and a favorite in the RS 59,000 crore agreement between the government With India for supply of 36 Rafale combat jets.
The NDA government has signed an agreement on September 23, 2016, to get 36 Rafale Jets from Dassault Aviation after almost seven years old to get 126 mediums.
Multi-role fighter plane (MMRCA) for the Indian Air Force does not produce results during the upa regime.
Congress accused the government of massive irregularities in the agreement, alleging that it was the procurement of each plane at a cost of more than Rs 1,670 Crore as a participant.
Against RS 526 Crore was completed by the government upa during negotiations for MMRCA.
Before the 2019 Sabha selection, Congress had submitted several questions about ABO UKRE and alleged corruption, but the government had rejected all charges.
The Rafale Dassault Aviation and Ministry of India’s Ministry has previously destroyed corruption allegations in the contract.
The Indian Supreme Court also in 2019 which was dismissed the petition was looking for an investigation into an agreement that said there was no foundation for it.
In a statement published in April, reacting to Mediapart reports on investigations, Dassault Aviation has stated that the group, “acts in a strict compliance with the OECD anti-bribery convention”.
