Congress President Rahul Gandhi today launched a frontal attack on the NDA government in Lok Sabha over unfulfilled promises and questioned the Rafale deal demanding answers from Prime Minister Narendra Modi on why he allegedly favoured a particular businessman in the contract.
He also accused the Prime Minister of waiving off loans worth Rs 2.5 lakh crore for big industrialists. “But he can’t waive off farmer’s loans because they don’t wear suit and boot even though they have given votes to the PM,” he said.
Prime Minister Modi is scheduled to reply to the debate at 6 pm today. His government has the numbers to defeat with ease, the first no-confidence motion his four-year-old government has faced, but the BJP, which leads the ruling National Democratic Alliance wants to win two thirds of the vote in a show of strength.
