With Congress president Rahul Gandhi unrelenting, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley too on Wednesday continued with his counters to take on Opposition leader. In a series of tweets, Jaitley questioned the knowledge of Rahul saying “How much does he know? When will be know?”
His comments come on a day when Parliament witnessed an uproar over the Rafale deal. During the debate, Gandhi wanted to know from the Government why the price of the fighter jet went up from Rs 526 crore to Rs 1,600 crore. “Even a fool will not compare prices of a simple flyaway aircraft with a weaponised jet,” Jaitley said.
He further said that even in the offer made to the UPA Government there were two different prices — one of the flyaway aircraft and the offer of the weaponised aircraft.
