Arun Jaitley On Rafale

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Monday hit out at Congress President Rahul Gandhi saying his "very low credibility" has been "eroded even further" with him having to express regret to the Supreme Court over his statement in connection with the Rafale deal judgement.

Hours after the Supreme Court pulled up Congress president Rahul Gandhi for allegedly misquoting it on Rafale, Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley criticised him by saying that Indian democracy "does not permit dynasts to rewrite" judicial orders.

Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Thursday said that the freedom of press cannot be above national security and that the framers of the Constitution too realised this fact.

Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad today has a lacerating reply to Rahul Gandhi's demand for prosecution of the Prime Minister over the Rafale deal, saying the Congress chief believed neither the Air Force nor the government, and only a certificate from Pakistan would satisfy him.

Union minister Arun Jaitley today rubbished Congress accusations of the Comptroller and Auditor General being "complicit in the irregularities" of the Rafale deal, saying Rajeev Mehrishi was in no way associated with the decision-making process on the fighter jets.

Union Minister Arun Jaitley today hit back at the Congress and other opposition after their scathing attack of the government over the Rafale fighter jet deal and the national auditor's report on it. He tweeted the "Mahajhootbandhan(grand lies alliance)" stands exposed by the report, which reaffirms the dictum that truth shall prevail.

Amid bitter exchanges between the Congress and the BJP over the Rafale jet deal, Union Minister Arun Jaitley launched a blistering attack on Congress chief Rahul Gandhi

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Friday dismissed an investigative piece by The Hindu newspaper that claimed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's decision to buy 36 fighter jets instead of 126 raised the price of each aircraft by over 41 per cent, and said the report is based on "fudged arithmetic".

Rahul Gandhi today said if the Congress party comes to power in this year's election, a criminal investigation would be launched into the Rafale jet deal and the accused would be punished. The Congress president's comments came as the party accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of overruling objections raised by the defence and the law ministries to...

Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, replying to an acrimonious debate in parliament on the Rafale jet deal today, accused the Congress of scrapping an earlier deal when it was in power because it "didn't get the money" and ignored social security in favour of its "treasury security".

After a debate in parliament on the Rafale deal, Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday evening dared Prime Minister Narendra Modi for a one-on-one debate on the deal for the 36 fighter jets from France.

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, while making a case against the Gandhis in his sharp fightback on the Rafale jet deal in parliament, quoted James Bond creator Ian Fleming. And was accused of "misquoting" the iconic author in the process.

There's only one takeaway from the duelling speeches delivered by Rahul Gandhi and Arun Jaitley in the Lok Sabha, and that is that the BJP is, for some reason, rattled. This is not 2014; attacks on the Congress for corruption aren't going to have the power they had back then.

Upon being told that he could not name businessman Anil Ambani in his speech in parliament on Wednesday, opposition leader Rahul Gandhi asked, making a great show of disbelief, "I can't name him?"

In an acrimonious debate in parliament on Wednesday, Rahul Gandhi accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of "hiding in his room" and lacking the guts to face questions on the Rafale jet deal before being targeted in a lacerating rejoinder by Finance Minister Arun Jaitley for what he called "repeated lies".
