Taking a jibe at Congress president Rahul Gandhi, Union minister Prakash Javadekar on Tuesday said he may keep repeating Rafale, but what it means is actually "Rahul fail".
He also said the Congress' accusation that the Narendra Modi government had failed to create jobs in its tenure was "baseless" and went on to claim there was no right system to measure employment creation in the country.
Javadekar said the Centre was creating a new mechanism to tabulate the creation of jobs so that a true picture emerged for the public.
"They (Congress) will still keep saying Rafale, Rafale, Rafale. Why do you (Congress) keep saying Rafale, Rafale. Rafale means Rahul fail," Javadekar said.
He claimed the Prime Minister Narendra Modi dispensation at the Centre was the "first government" where not a single minister was named in any corruption scandal.
Speaking on constant attacks on the Centre over lack of jobs for the country's youth, Javadekar said, "We do not have the right process to measure how much employment has been created. The National Sample Survey Office (NSSO) visits 100 houses and creates data. This data is not right."
