NEW DELHI: Yet again Congress aimed BJP on the Rafale deal  in the Parliament.  The drama in the Parliament increased when MPs led by the Congress president disrupted Finance Minister Arun Jaitley's speech on the Rafale jets.  

During the discussion on Rafale fighter in Lok Sabha, Congress MP from Punjab Gurjeet Singh Aujla threw paper plane towards Finance Minister. When Jaitley started speaking on the deal Congress lawmakers started making a ruckus in the Lok Sabha by sloganeering against the Union Minister. The ruckus began shortly after FM Jaitley began with a point-to-point rebuttal of the Opposition charges of corruption in the Rafale fighter jet deal.

Later, Lok Sabha speaker Sumitra Mahajano rebuked the lawmakers for their actions after the comaplian of Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman complained about it.

Rahul Gandhi  sought to play a purported recording of a conversation of a Goa Minister on the Rafale deal as he accused PM Modi of bypassing procedures to award the contract to a private entity after agreeing to a three-time hike in the price per aircraft and reducing the number of planes to be bought. Speaker Sumitra Mahajan asked Rahul Gandhi to authenticate the purported conversation and sternly told him not to play any recording.
