'Don't worry Modi ji', probe will take place now: Cong on SC's Rafale decision

Congress' chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala said that the skeletons in Rafale scam are tumbling out one by one. He also said that there is 'no official secrets act' to hide behind for the Modi government.

New Delhi: The Congress Wednesday hailed the Supreme Court's decision allowing leaked documents to be used by petitioners seeking review of the Rafale judgement, saying skeletons in the "scam" are tumbling out and now there is "no official secrets act" to hide behind for the Modi government.

The Supreme Court Wednesday allowed leaked documents to be relied upon by petitioners seeking review of its Rafale judgement and dismissed the government's preliminary objections claiming "privilege" over them.

"Modiji, you can run and lie as much as you want but sooner or later the truth comes out. The skeletons in Rafale scam are tumbling out one by one. And now there is 'no official secrets act' to hide behind," Congress' chief spokesperson Randeep Surjewala said.
