Hours after Arun Jaitley put up 15 questions for the Congress in a Facebook post accusing Rahul Gandhi of "peddling untruth" on the Rafale fighter jet deal, the Congress president had a dare of his own for the Finance Minister.

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has posted a set of 15 questions to the Congress in his latest post on Facebook, asking the party led by Rahul Gandhi to stop their "false campaign based on untruth" against the Dassault Aviation's Rafale fighter jet deal with France.

Hitting back at Union minister Arun Jaitley who accused West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee of playing with India's sovereignty over the issue of Assam's National Register of Citizens, her party Trinamool Congress said citizenship is not a gift which can be handed over or taken back.
