SC verdict on Rafale deal LIVE Updates: The Supreme Court Friday dismissed the petitions seeking a court-monitored probe into the Rafale deal. A three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi said it was satisfied by the procurement process. The case pertains to the purchase of 36 Rafale fighter jets from French company Dassault Aviation. The bench, also comprising Justices S K Kaul and K M Joseph, had reserved its verdict in the case on November 14.
During the hearing, the four petitioners in the case had sought details on the process behind selecting Dassault Aviation for the contract and the price negotiated — they claim the current price by the NDA government is much higher than the one that was being negotiated for 126 aircraft by the previous UPA government. The government had responded that the price of the jets could not be disclosed to the public for reasons of national security and had submitted it to the apex court in a sealed envelope. The price is estimated at around Rs 59,000 crore.
