Congress President Rahul Gandhi has continued with his attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, accusing him of fleeing the parliament. His fresh attack came hours after he posed four questions to Modi in what termed it was an open book Rafale exam.
Gandhi wrote, “So it seems our PM has fled Parliament & his own open book Rafale exam & is instead lecturing students at Lovely Univ. in Punjab, today. I request the students there to, respectfully, ask him to please answer the 4 questions posed to him by me, yesterday.”

Modi is addressing students at Lovely University in Punjab. This is also being seen as his first campaign rally ahead of the Lok Sabha polls. Modi was also absent from the parliament on Wednesday, when the MPs debated the Rafale deal.
Taking to Twitter, Gandhi had posed four questions to Modi on Wednesday. They included ‘Why 36 aircraft, instead of the 126 the IAF needed? Why 1,600 Cr instead of 560 Cr per aircraft. Modi Ji, please tell us why Parrikar Ji keeps a Rafale file in his bedroom & what’s in it? Why AA instead of HAL?” Gandhi had referred to Anil Ambani as ‘AA.’
Gandhi had also dared Modi for a ‘one on one’ debate’ on the Rafale deal.
