Rafale deal- biggest scam of century: Moily

Mangaluru: President of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Finance and former minister M Veerappa Moily has called the Rafale fighter aircraft deal worth over Rs 40,000 crore as the biggest scam of the century.

On Tuesday, he spoke to reporters at Circuit House and said that though the opposition parties have been vehemently demanding that Joint Parliamentary Committee should probe into the irregularities, the NDA government was hesitating. There was no need to maintain secrecy on the issue of the price of the purchased aircrafts, but the NDA government was trying to hush up the scam on the pretext of confidentiality. The Congress has launched a nationwide campaign against this, he informed.

Congress will highlight the scam during the upcoming Lok Sabha polls. Instead of the promised Achhe Din, we are seeing Bure Din under Modi’s rule, he added.

Replying to a question, if he intends to contest from Dakshina Kannada in the upcoming LS Polls, Moily said he planned to contest from Chikkaballapura from where he has won twice.
