Amid the Rafale row, Union Minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi Saturday termed the controversy a "deep-rooted conspiracy" against national security and flayed Congress dubbing it as a "skeleton of corruption."
Dubbing the Congress party as a "skeleton of corruption," the minister told PTI "under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, transparency and honesty is at the forefront of the system."
"Thats why the champions of corruption are frustrated and they are trying to fabricate...to mislead the people of the country (on the Rafale deal)."
On the sidelines of an event here, Naqvi said "trust for the prime minister among the people is strong, and unbreakable."
