Rafale deal is the biggest scam: KC Venugopal
Bengaluru, September 2: AICC Karnataka incharge KC Venugopal said that a state-wide campaign would be conducted across the state against the Narendra Modi-led NDA government which has been looting the common people by hiking the petroleum prices, and other corruption cases.
Speaking to reporters at the KPCC office here on Sunday, Venugopal said that in the name of petrol and diesel, the central government has been looting the public money. There was a big conspiracy in hiking the petroleum products every day. In the same way, the centre has involved in other scandals. In October, the Congress would conduct the conventions and campaign in all districts in October, he said.
“Rafale fighter flights purchase deal is the biggest scandal in the country. Though AICC president Rahul Gandhi has asked several questions, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has not yet answered them. Instead, they have been making false allegations in Bofors issue. We have asked three clarifications in Rafale deal issue. If the deal made during the UPA tenure was continued, there would be thousands of job opportunities for the youth. But the NDA government has made fresh deal and fixed high price”, he said.
No complaint
When Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy met AICC president Rahul Gandhi, the former did not complain against Siddaramaiah. It was media creation. Moreover, the coalition government would complete its five years tenure, he clarified.
KPCC president Dinesh Gundu Rao, working president Eshwar Khandre and others were present.
‘Seat for JDS- AICC to discuss’
“We will win all the 28 Lok Sabha seats in the state. AICC level committee will decide on seat sharing between the Congress and JDS for Lok Sabha election”.

Responding to the BJP’s criticism on AICC president Rahul Gandhi’s visit to China to visit Kailash Mansarovar pilgrimage, Venugopal said that where did all those BJP leaders go when Prime Minister Narendra Modi danced with Chinese Prime Minister.
