20/ Bharatiya Janata Party leader Ashok Taneja from Punjab was arrested after his daughter complained to police of him repeatedly raping her over the years
hindustantimes.com/india/bjp-lead…
21/ It is not surprising when their supreme leader himself ordered the snooping of a woman using the state machinery. Neither BJP nor its top leaders contested this in a court of law if they were clean.
22/ We can dig out enough such cases of #BalatkarJantaParty. Their leaders like Ms Lekhi will keep arguing to protect the rapists and others like Smriti Irani will run away from questions of the media fearing their personal growth in the party.
23/ But these things will not cover up the truth. #Kathua and #Unnao were not political issues till BJP RSS politicised and gave religious colours to it. Both were clear cases of BJP govts misusing its position in power to protect the culprits.
24/ Such an attitude of BJP has forced a common man like me to believe BJP is #BalatkarJantaParty and it will not change till the party RSS change their attitude towards women and stop treating them as weaker sex.
25/ Swami Chinmayananda - former minister and BJP leader was booked for raping a woman. Now Ajay Bisht govt decided to withdraw tue case without any trial.
ndtv.com/india-news/yog…

1/As Modi govt claims, Negotiations with Rafale didn’t fail, but differences ironed out and Dassault and HAL signed a work share agreement.
As everyone claim, Dassault Reliance JV was not formed in 2016, but immediately after Modi’s announcement

1/ Modi Govt, cabinet ministers, BJP spokespersons and party supporters, fake defence experts and spineless journalists are all speaking in the same voice and parroting the govt stand on #Rafale36. But Modi’s #Rafale36 deal is not just about the price escalation. #Thread
2/ Neither BJP Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman nor blog minister Arun Jaitley never answered anything about the following questions: When did IAF requested for 36 Rafale? To whom did IAF submit the request? Which committee held the meeting?
3/ Who chaired the meeting? When did the approval for 36 aircrafts given? Who approved it? Why the then Defence Minister Parrikar was not aware of the deal? Why did Parrikar say it was the decision of PM soon after Modi’s announcement from Paris?

1/ When Modi ordered #Rafale36 off the shelf from France, Modi himself and his ministers, other BJP leaders along with Modi bhakt Media reporters kept repeating and keep repeating one sentence- “it is an emergency purchase for IAF”
2/ If it was an emergency requirement, it would have been ordered under the Fast Track Procedure of DPP. If so, when did IAF submit the proposal for 36 Rafale and did the then Chief of Air Staff approve it? When was the approval given by DAC and did Mr Parrikar know about this?
3/ If IAF submitted its proposal and DAC approved it, when did the meeting take place? When was this proposal processed?
If not, who gave the he number 36 to Modi? How could Modi take such a unilateral call in violation of all the set procedures? And why he did so?

1/ No Mrs @nsitharaman. This is another false statement from you.
The first question is, who gave the permission to PM to take a unilateral decision and why didn’t he wait for a CCS approval before his announcement?
Why did the then Defence Minister was not consulted?
2/ Another question you never answered is why did Modi govt agreed on Geneva as the seat of arbitration? And why did Modi govt agreed to pay in advance before the delivery?
How did such big a deal went through without the mandatory bank guarantee from Dassault?
3/ If Dassault falters on delivery schedule, in absence of a bank guarentee, what is the security Modi govt got from France?
Why did law Ministry’s red flag on the contract was sidelined? Who advised for that? And for whom?

1/ Why Modi government’s #Rafale36 is not a transparent deal and why the cost of around ₹1670 crore per Rafale is too exorbitant a price? Why Opposition is calling it #RafaleScam?
We have clear answers available in public domain given by The then DM Parrikar. #RafaleScamThread
2/ A Ministry Of Defence press release dated 28 August 2007 states the then government’s estimated cost for the MMRCA deal with total 126 aircrafts were ₹42,000 i.e 333.33 cr per aircraft.
pib.nic.in/newsite/erelco…
3/ Immediately after Modi Announced the #Rafale36 deal from France, in an interview to a News Channel, the then DM Manohar Parrikar told “if we go for 126 Rafale, the total cost would have been 90,000 crore ‘inclusive of everything’”.

1) Let us revisit the 17 days starting from March 25, 2015 to April 10, 2015 to understand how the Rafale deal changed altogether. #thread
