Arun Jaitley: 'irrespective of the allegations, the Rafale jets deal will not be cancelled'

Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Sunday made it clear that “irrespective of the allegations, the Rafale jets deal will not be cancelled”. In an interview to news agency ANI, Jaitley said whether the planes are bought at a higher rate or not is a matter for the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) to examine. He also said the present Rafale aircraft are cheaper than what the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government had negotiated and added that all these facts and figures will be placed before the CAG.
