West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday raked up the Rafale issue while releasing the list of candidates of the Trinamool Congress.
“What Rahul Gandhi is saying on Rafale, I fully endorse it. After N. Ram [Chairman of the The Hindu Group] did a story on that, he has been threatened. This is what journalists are expected to do, to look for sources and nobody reveals their sources,” she said. Last week, the Trinamool Congress chairperson had condemned “threats by BJP” to Mr. Ram.
Ms. Banerjee, who showed minutes of the RBI Board meeting on demonetisation obtained through an RTI query, said she too never revealed her sources.
