India to get Rafale jets before 36 months: Parrikar
Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar on Sunday said that India may start getting Rafale fighter aircraft from France earlier than the agreed-upon 36 months. "We have requested them to (deliver it) as fast as possible," he said. The deal worth around ₹58,300 crore for 36 Rafale fighter jets was signed between India and France earlier in September.
