Upping the ante against the Congress over the Rafale controversy, Indian Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Monday said she will launch a nationwide campaign "to fight the perception battle", media reports said.
Sitharaman said she will hold several press conferences to fight the battle.
She has been quoted by NDTV as saying, "We need to fight the perception battle. Many of us will be speaking across the country. Facts have to come out."
The riling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress are having a face-off over the Rafale deal (buying of 36 fighter jets by India) ever since former French President Francois Hollande said India had urged France to nominate Indian industrialist Anil Ambani's Reliance Defence Industries as its partner in the Rafale deal.
