While we talk much about our military, we don’t put our national wallet where our mouth is. Nobody is saying we should double our defence spending, but current declining trend must be reversed.
Congress loves to have it both ways. On the one hand, Rahul Gandhi issues a statement saying that Nirav Modi and Narendra Modi are both looters, and then this retired judge who joined the Congress party after meeting with Rahul Gandhi, is an “expert witness” for the defence trying to derail the extradition case. What was the need for him to accept the case? It is not just the optics that looks bad here. This is just against the national interest. Fugitives like Nirav Modi and Vijay Mallya need to held accountable and must go through a fair judicial process in India. What the Congress party is doing is utterly shameful.
People were accusing Ex CJI Ranjan Gogoi as BJP man for accepting Rajya Sabha MP position. What do u say of retired judges like these who goes to a foreign court to appear as expert witness against govt efforts for extradition. Is he appearing for free? Or like appearing to defend Ajmal Kasab as no one was there to defend him?????
The scam started in the UPA years. Most of the money was siphoned away in the UPA years. And now a congress party member gives a legal opinion on why Nirav Modi cannot be extradited. Congress should come clean and also pay the country back the money which they helped in siphoning off.
Can the low-lifes of the BJP understand this explanation? We have an idiotic law minister today and a Narad Patra who are going to town with this accusation. Remember Jethmalani, defending the killers of Beant Singh and Jessica Lal when he was a Law Minister under Vajpayee. Did he do so under the behest of the PM?
What a dumbo are you. How does a law munister defend anyone. He had to resign as minister and then di what he wanted. It is you who should get a life
Its clear in this article that Nirav firm hired the ex judge and this headline is giving a spin that it was not to defend Nirav.
So they hired ex Congress men to speak against Nirav????
NDTV legacy staff ???
And Alice in Wonderland is a true story! Does Congress think that people of India are fools?
