Modi sacked CBI Chief over Rafale: Rahul Gandhi

Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Saturday attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the removal of former CBI Chief Alok Verma, saying that Modi “sacked” Verma without hearing him and was too “terrified” to let him stay in his post for the briefest period.

“The Prime Minister is currently being held hostage by the Rafale scam. A person who has sacked the CBI Chief twice in a row and is terrified to let the CBI Chief sit there for fifteen minutes has no business talking about anything,” Gandhi said while addressing media here in Dubai.
