MEA Dismisses Viral Rafale Deal Letter as Fake

A letter claiming that India's External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar wrote to the French ambassador about a leak in the Rafale deal went viral.

The letter said that information about the Rafale naval aircraft timeline was leaked, causing problems.

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said the letter was fake and warned people to be careful about false information.

The Rafale deal is a big deal where India bought fighter jets from France.

There have been arguments about the deal, with some saying the prices were too high and that there was corruption.

The French company that makes the jets says everything was checked and there were no problems.
