Rahul questions PM's 'silence' over Hollande's remarks on Rafale

In a stinging attack on Narendra Modi, Congress president Rahul Gandhi Saturday said former French president Francois Hollande's remarks on Reliance Defence showed "clear cut" corruption in the Rafale deal and questioned the prime minister's "silence" on the issue
Demanding a joint parliamentary committee probe into the Rafale deal, he said, "(Finance Minister) Arun Jaitley has written a very good blog, but when it came to the JPC demand, he went silent. Let there be a JPC, we can call Hollande also in it and everything will be known."
The report in 'Mediapart', a French language publication, quoted Hollande as saying, "It was the Indian government that proposed this service group, and Dassault which negotiated with Ambani. We had no choice, we took the interlocutor who was given to us."
