Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Sunday alleged there was a 'scam' in the controversial Rafale jet deal with France and accused Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman of doing a 'flip-flop' on the secrecy clause.

Rahul also attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the issue, alleging he 'squirms' when asked about the prices of the fighter aircraft. "Our Defence Minister said she would, but now she won't. She flip flops between “it's-not-a-secret” & “it's-a-BIG-secret”. The PM squirms when asked about the price of RAFALE and refuses to look me in the eye. Sure smells like a scam. #RAFALEscam (sic)," he tweeted.
