Who told Arnab about Balakot, Rahul wants to know

January 20, 2021 10:45

Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday asked who had leaked "top secret' information about the Balakot air strike to Republic TV's Arnab Goswami, underlining that this was a "criminal act' that had put Indian Air Force pilots conducting the raid inside Pakistan at risk.

"This was top secret information. This was not provided to anybody else. There were four or five people who knew this,' the Congress leader said at a news conference in New Delhi, listing the Prime Minister, the defence minister, the home minister, the air chief and the national security adviser as those who would know about such an operation.

"I want to know whether it was the Prime Minister of India who told Arnab Goswami. Or it was the defence minister or the home minister. Or it was the NSA. I want to know which one of those people told this man," Rahul said.
