Rahul slams PM on Rafale, says didn't coin 'chowkidar' slogan

Alleging Prime Minister Narendra Modi carried out parallel negotiations with France for the Rafale fighter jet deal, Congress chief Rahul Gandhi Wednesday accused him of insulting the martyrs by "committing a theft" in the multi-crore defence contract.

Gandhi said Modi is looking "depressed" these days as he has sensed he is going to lose the ongoing Lok Sabha elections, whose last phase will be held on May 19.

"Officials of the Indian Air Force wrote that Narendra Modi held parallel negations with France. Chowkidar was holding direct dialogue with the manufacturer of Rafale
(What was your feeling when you were committing theft. Did you think that you are snatching jobs from the youths of Bhind? No. Did you think that you are insulting the martyrs? No. You did not think this. But, Narendra Modi ji, nobody can escape justice.)
The Congress chief said, "The Rafale deal would have given jobs to the countrys youths but Narendra Modi did not give contract to Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL)."
Claiming this slogan has become peoples slogan, Gandhi said, "Once when my car had halted at a traffic signal, an auto stopped by the side of my window (which was open), driver saw me smiling, saw in my eyes and said 'chowkidar chor hai'."
"See his face, see the energy in him, looking depressed... he has lost the election."
