Rahul Gandhi kept up his attack on the Narendra Modi led government for alleged irregularity in the Rafale deal. The Congress President said that issues such as the situation in Jammu and Kashmir, and said that price for the "wrong non-strategic approach of the government" was being paid by our soldiers. Gandhi emphasized on the Rafale deal and said that there is a "connection" between the lack of implementation in OROP and Rafale deal irregularity. "Anil Ambani can be given Rs 30,000 crore for doing nothing, but our soldiers can't be given OROP," said the Congress President.
