"Use Common Sense": PM Snaps After Congress Rejoinder On Rafale Remark | Read

Irked over the Congress sniping over Rafale jets and the Balakot air strike, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today snapped out at the party. PM Modi's comment -- that the country was "feeling the absence of the Rafale jets" during the air strikes and "swarthneeti" (politics of self-interest) was to blame for it -- has generated a round of sparring between him and Congress chief Rahul Gandhi. Today, addressing a rally at Gujarat's Jamnagar, PM Modi said: "Please use common sense; what I said was if we had Rafale at the time of air strikes, than none of our fighter jets would have gone down and none of theirs saved".
