Our position is ‘firmer’ not weaker: Defence Minister on SC order in Rafale review petition

Apr 17, 2019

New Delhi, Apr 17 (ANI): Union Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in an exclusive interview to ANI on Wednesday said that post the Supreme Court order allowing leaked documents in the review petition of Rafale case, the position of the central government, which had objected to use of leaked documents, has become ‘firmer’ instead of ‘weaker’ that some people are trying to portray. Sitharaman added that even if SC allows the ‘stolen documents’ in Rafale review petition, it doesn’t alter the ‘clear process’ which was adopted for the purchase of 36 Rafale fighter jets.
