Paper planes to protest the Rafale deal — India's politicians are getting wackier

Feb 13, 2019, 17:56 IST

The Indian government under the Bharatiya Janata Party signed a better deal than the Congress, said a report tabled by the Comptroller and Auditor General of India.

The Rafale deal signed in 2016 by Narendra Modi government was 2.86% cheaper in comparison with the deal signed by Congress in 2007, said the report.

The opposition leader, Rahul Gandhi, along with Sonia Gandhi and former Indian president Manmohan Singh joined the protest, which began just before India’s federal auditor tabled the report in upper house of the Parliament.

The Congress lawmakers were seen flying paper planes that had Rafale written on them alleging corruption in the multi-billion deal.
