Sitharaman hits back, says Rahul misleading nation

​New Delhi: Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman has strongly hit back at Congress chief Rahul Gandhi for raising doubts over multi-crore contracts given to the Hindustan Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) saying “he should apologise for misleading the nation.” In her counter offensive, Sitharaman said it was a matter of “shame” that the Congress president was misleading the country on the issue. 

She also tweeted details of the contract awarded to HAL since 2014 when the BJP came to power. "Dear Shri @RahulGandhi , looks like you really need to start from ABCs. Someone like you who is hellbent on misleading the public will quote an article even before reading it," she tweeted.
