Rahul Gandhi again targets Prime Minister Modi saying 'Chor’, Dassault CEO says, “Allegations are baseless”
NOV 13 (WTN) - The ongoing political battle over the issue of Rafale is now 'extreme'. Tomorrow, on Monday, the Central Government submitted 'important' information related to the Rafale deal in the Supreme Court. After this, today Rahul Gandhi attacks on the Modi government, again referred to Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a 'thief' in 'indirect' form. Among all this, interview of CEO of Dassault is revealed in which he has cleared said that Rahul Gandhi’s allegations are baseless.
Targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the Rafale deal, Rahul tweeted today, in which he wrote, "In the Supreme Court, Modiji has assumed his theft. In the affidavit, the government admitted that they changed the contract without asking the air force and put Rs 30,000 crore in the pocket of Ambani. My Friend, The film is not over yet."
Among Rahul Gandhi's allegations, Éric Trappier, CEO of Dassault Aviation, a French company, responded to each and every question that arose on Rafale deal in an interview given to a news agency. In his interview, Éric Trappier termed all allegations made by Rahul Gandhi ‘false’.
Éric Trappier said, "Whatever allegations are being made by Congress President Rahul Gandhi, they are absolutely ‘baseless’. Rahul Gandhi has utterly lied about the joint venture between Dassault and Reliance. Whatever information has been given about the deal is absolutely correct, because I never say lie."
Breaking the silence on the issue of Rafale's price, he said, "The aircraft are almost 9 percent cheaper being delivered to India. The 36 aircraft rate is exactly the same as the current 18. These prices could have doubled, but the agreement was between the government and the government, so the price was not increased. Rather, the price was 9% cheaper. CEO Trappier said, “36 Ready to fly condition Rafale aircraft price is inexpensive compared to the cost of 126 contracts Rafale aircrafts.”
On breaking the agreement with HAL, he said, "When the issue of the 126 Rafale aircraft was going on, then the agreement with HAL was only a matter of fact, but if the deal goes well, then the agreement only meets HAL. But the agreement of the 126 aircraft was not correct, so the 36 aircraft contract was discussed. After that the agreement went ahead with Reliance." Éric Trappier further said," In the last days, HAL itself said that it was not interested in joining this offset and the way to the deal with Reliance was completely cleared."
Meanwhile, the government cleared the affidavit given to the Supreme Court that why did the country need to buy the Rafale aircraft? The Central Government told the Supreme Court that the previous UPA government had delayed the finalization of the Medium Multi-Role Combat Aircraft process. During this time enemies of the country joined the fleet of fourth and fifth generation aircraft. For this reason, the fall in the number of Indian Air Force's fleet fighter fleets was needed immediately.
This complete information was given in the document that the Central Government made public to justify the purchase of 36 Rafale fighters from France. It has been said in the document that the proposal to buy Medium Multi-Role Combat Aircraft was sent by the Indian Air Force to the government and in 2007 the tender for 126 fighter aircraft was issued. During this, delay and indecision in the 126 MMRCA purchase process; our enemies added modern planes to their fleet and upgraded the earlier versions.
Further documents say that according to the available information the enemies involved more than 400 fighter planes between 2010 and 2015. Our competitors were increasing their fighter planes capacity and the capacity of our fighters was decreasing, the situation had become very fragile. The Indian Air Force felt the need to immediately eliminate the declining number of squadrons of fighters and increase the capacity of fighter aircraft. For this, it was intended to purchase 36 Rafale planes (two squadrons) in the event of ready to fly conditions under the pre-existing process.
The Central Government has cleared its position on the Rafale aircraft deal, while Rahul Gandhi has been consistently targeting the Modi government on the Rafale issue. So the Modi government and the Dassault Company have been repeatedly saying that there is ‘no disturbance’ in any way in the Rafale deal. The manner in which Rahul Gandhi is constantly blaming Rafale Deal on the government, if he can’t prove his allegations, then he will have to answer the country as the Air Force of the country says that Rafale's deal is beneficial for the IAF.
