Rafale tapes authentic, gave Parrikar power over Modi: Rahul


Panaji, Jan 28 (IANS): Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Monday said that Goa Chief Minister possessed "explosive Rafale secrets" which gave him power over Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

"Thirty days since the Goa audio tapes on Rafale were released. No FIR or enquiry ordered. No action against the Minister (Goa Health Minister Vishwajit Rane) either," Gandhi, who is currently holidaying in the coastal state, said in a series of tweets.

"It's obvious that the tapes are authentic and that Goa CM (Chief Minister) Parrikar, is in possession of explosive Rafale secrets, that give him power over the PM (Prime Minister)."

An audio clip featuring Rane and a local journalist -- where the former claimed that Parrikar in a December 2018 cabinet meeting admitted to possessing a stash of files related to the Rafale deal -- had created ruckus in Parliament earlier this month.

Rane later said that the tape was doctored.

    RaGa is diggin the Cong grave deeper, He had good chance in parliment to do that but he did not authenticate it. He may loose his traditional 'rice bag' votes if he keeps on doing this.

    Do you know the process involved in authentication? It's not something Rahul Gandhi could do in Parliament. Authentication can be done only in a forensic lab wih the recorded tapes in question and voice samples of those involved in the conversation and the voice samples have to be collected in the lab itself. Only speaker could intiate such process. But considering the people and the agencies involved in the process, one can very well predict the outcome!

    Why did you not authenticate in parliament,?? because it was a lie and you would have lost your parliamentary seat and debarred from contesting,?
    Mr Rahul this is not a banana Republic. Time is running out. You can now go to the court and prove yourself right. If not nobody will trust you.

    Something to be just in news. If that was the case, why didnt you prove it in the parliment when you were asked to by Jaitlee ? You sheepishly declined.
