Cong welcomes arrival of Rafale, questions 'delay'

The Congress on Wednesday welcomed the arrival of Rafale fighter jets, but questioned the delay and their high cost. Rahul Gandhi asked why each Rafale jet was purchased at a cost of Rs 1,670 crore while the erstwhile Congress-led dispensation struck a deal for Rs 526 crore, and why the offset contract was given to a "bankrupt" private firm instead of the HAL.
