BJP: Rahul has ‘Rafale phobia’

Hyderabad, February 10

The BJP on Sunday took a swipe at Congress president Rahul Gandhi for his remarks against the Prime Minister on the Rafale deal, accusing him of playing with the country’s security in the most “irresponsible manner”.

Dismissing Gandhi’s allegations, Union Law Minister and BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad said he was “lying shamelessly” on the fighter jet deal and has got “Rafale phobia”. “Rahul has Rafale phobia... The kind of language he is using against the Prime Minister does not behove him,” Prasad told reporters here. — PTI
