Continuing his attack on the Rafale deal, Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday questioned the government's silence on the demand for disclosing the price of the fighter jets being bought from France.

"We have asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the defence minister about the price of the aircraft. The defence minister says she will not let the youth of Hindustan know the price. She told us that there is a secret pact between India and France (not to disclose the price)," he told the media on the second day of his visit to his constituency.
