NEW DELHI: Congress leader and chairman of the AICC media and publicity department , Pawan Khera , on Saturday hit out at Pakistan over its claims regarding India’s Rafale fighter jets .

“We have learned from the news that Pakistan has provided the tail numbers of Rafale jets. I believe the Indian Air Force will refute these claims, and when all the Rafales are displayed, Pakistan will come to its senses,” Khera said in a statement in Hindi as quoted by IANS.

हमें ख़बरों से पता चला है कि पाकिस्तान ने राफेल के टेल नंबर दिए हैं।

हमारी सरकार से भी गुजारिश है कि… pic.twitter.com/Xc8JDPrRyf
