Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi has on Saturday targeted the government afresh over the Rafale plane deal, which has been strongly countered by BJP leader and Union Minister Piyush Goyal. Goyal said that Rahul is invited to contest the 2024 Lok Sabha elections on this issue.

Rahul Gandhi tweeted, citing a news report, 'Money was stolen from Indian treasury in Rafale (deal)'. The Congress leader, citing a statement of Mahatma Gandhi, said, "Truth is one, the ways are many."

According to the news that he cited, the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) has submitted its 'Performance Audit' report to the government regarding defense 'offset' contracts which mentions any 'offset' contract in respect of the purchase of Rafale aircraft. Is not.

Taking a dig at Rahul Gandhi, Railway Minister Goyal tweeted, `` Many of Rahul Gandhi's associates privately state that the party is harming Rahul's craze over Rafael to wash away his father's sins. But if someone is waiting for their own demolition, then who are we to complain? '

He said, "We invite Rahul Gandhi to contest the 2024 election on the Rafale issue." Significantly, in the last Lok Sabha election, Rahul Gandhi had made the Rafale aircraft deal the main issue and made a scathing attack on Narendra Modi about it. The Congress had to face defeat in that election.
