Rahul Gandhi during a public meeting in Sanand, Gujarat
"They have closed Parliament...every year Parliament opens in November, this year it will not open in November. You see, it is not going to open before elections," Gandhi said.
"Why? because they don't want Jay Shah, Rafale deal and Doklam issues to be discussed in Parliament before Gujarat elections," he told a gathering of Dalits in this town near Ahmedabad.
News portal The Wire had alleged that the turnover of a company of Jay Shah had grown exponentially from Rs 50,000 to Rs 8 crore after the BJP came to power at the Centre in 2014.
The Congress had recently raised questions over the Rafale fighter aircraft deal, accusing the government of compromising national interest and security while promoting "crony capitalism" and causing a loss to the public exchequer. However, the BJP had rubbished the allegation.
The tense Doklam military standoff between India and China was resolved after over two months.
"Every day they make statements that they will do this and do that in Parliament, but first you allow Parliament to open...I also want to discuss a few things regarding Rafale, Jay Shah and Doklam," Rahul Gandhi, who is on campaign trail in Gujarat, said.
The Gujarat Assembly polls are due to be held in two phases on December 9 and 14.
