Will take legal recourse if Narendra Modi government goes ahead with Rafale deal: Subramanian Swamy

[Capt.Popeye]

Kinda. He is a valuable ally, not a great party member.

Refer to my earlier post; there is nothing great or valuable about him. And he does not even have the cloak of lack of education that the Yogi types can use as an excuse.

jo ukhadna hai ukhadle. Rafale will be in IAF colors. Period

Well swami has put a telecom minister in jail in 2g case, what zaid has done besides bitching over ghosts in 1965 war. I agree swami just throws dung and sometimes it sticks, still more useful than that zaidiot.

Good question.....

@waz @Oscar sirs what happened to the other thread on this that was on page 17/18? There was a lot of information and good discussion going on on that thread.

Not sure my friend. I'll look for it.

As for the thread you idiots know nothing. Swamy jee was flying planes whilst you guys were in nappies. The only problem with that was that Swamy jee was looking at the clear Indian sky, in a meadow full of flowers, whilst he sipped on a large bottle of cool bhang.

You are too kind sir but you needn't bother yourself, that thread is pretty much redundant now anyway

No worries my friend.

The first is that Rafale is less fuel efficient aircraft

Swamy to IAF: Plane to acchha hai, par kItna deti hain bhai?

 

[Pulsar]

My Dearest Swamy!

Well this deal is more of Strategic type than Defence deal. 36 Rafael for a nuclear deal with Europe's strongest country is a sweet deal.

But this kind of diplomacy is not good for India, as by this, India's image would not be of a important player but just a CASH Cow.

Subramanium swamy is the country's top test pilot..


. hence he knows more about jets than Dassault guys themselves.

 

[Star Wars]

Where are those Swami bhakts now? @Star Wars

Still here, we arn't going anywhere. We are not swami "bhakt" you idiot, we only respect him for standing for our rights. A lot of members agree he is a bit of a lunatic but a genius when it comes to the legal and economic side of things.

behind this decision of buying 36 of the shelf, could there be a possibility of heavy bribe? Just thinking out loud, French are famous for butter and cheese

NEW DELHI:BJPleaderSubramanian Swamytoday threatened to take legal recourse if government went ahead with Rafale jet deal with France, saying there were shortcomings in the fighter aircraft.

Swamy, National Executive member of the party, requested Prime MinisterNarendra Modinot to go ahead with the Rafale deal, which was negotiated by the previousUPAgovernment, and said the performance of the French jet "turned out to be worst of all the aircraft" in Libya and Egypt.

Modi is currently in France and will hold comprehensive talks with the French leadership during which theRafale dealis likely to figure.

"There are two major issues with the Rafale Aircraft deal which would embarrass the BJP government. The first is that Rafale is less fuel efficient aircraft and lacking in essential performance characteristic that no country in the world has agreed to buy these aircraft," Swamy said in a statement.

"If the Prime Minister for some other 'compulsion' decides to go ahead with the deal, I will have no option but to approach the court in PIL to get it set aside," he said.

The statement further said that some countries have cancelled contract after signing an MoU with Dassault.

"It is a fact that Dassault will go bankrupt if no country buys the Rafale and we want to oblige the French goodwill, it is better to buy Dassault itself rather than their planes as it will be more beneficial," the leader added.

Rafale was selected by India from among five bidders in 2012 since it was the lowest bidder.

While initially, the deal was expected to be around $ 10 billion, it is now estimated to be over $ 20 billion.
