Anti-rafale jets campaign: A big claim has come out about the French Rafale fighter aircraft being used in India and other countries. French intelligence agencies say that China has launched a well -planned campaign, which aims to tarnish the image of Rafale aircraft and damage their foreign deals. This campaign included false news, AI-generated fake photos, and misleading posts on social media. France claims that China and Pakistan may be in collusion behind such activities. At the same time, China has rejected all the allegations.

China’s effort- tarnishing Rafael’s image
According to the French intelligence report, the Defense Attashe of the Embassy of China met officials from other countries to criticize Rafael and introduced Chinese fighter jets as a better option. Its aim was to buy China’s jet instead of potential customers Rafael.

Pakistan claims, India’s reply is not clear
During the Indo-Pakistan struggle in May 2025, Pakistan claimed that it demolished 5 Indian fighter aircraft, including 3 Rafale. India did not confirm this claim. Air Marshal of the Indian Air Force said that the loss is part of the war, but did not say anything directly about Rafael.

France’s reply- wrong information spread
Rafale -making company Dassault Aviation’s CEO Eric Tropia called Pakistan’s claims ‘false and wrong’. France says that this lie was spread through fake pictures, fake videos made from AI and thousands of new accounts on social media.

France’s concern: not just aircraft, national image on target
The French Ministry of Defense says that the attack is not only on Rafael, but on the technology, credibility and strategic freedom of France. The attack was carried out to damage the credibility of the country’s industrial image and partnership.

China’s reply- Allegations baseless
China’s Defense Ministry reacted to France’s allegations that it was ‘completely lies and baseless’. China said that it always adopts a responsible and balanced policy in military exports and cooperates in peace and stability.

BJP Attack Congress: India’s politics has once again been hot on the issue of national security. The BJP has retaliated after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy’s comments on Rafael aircraft and Indian Air Force. BJP leaders allege that the Congress is deliberately speaking the language of Pakistan and hurting the reputation of the Indian Army.

BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra, taking a dig at the Congress in a press conference, said, “The proof gang has become active again.” Patra said that Rahul Gandhi is only interested in how many aircraft India lost, while India’s military achievements are being rejected. He also alleged that Sonia Gandhi cried when the terrorists were killed and Rahul Gandhi celebrated after 26/11 attacks. Patra claimed that India has destroyed 9 terrorist camps and 11 Pakistani airports and satellite imagery is present as proof.

“Congress leader like Pakistan’s PR agency”-Amit Malaviya
BJP’s IT cell chief Amit Malviya also made a sharp comment on X (East Twitter). He objected to Revanth Reddy’s statement in which he asked, “How many Rafael did Pakistan kill?” Malaviya said that if Pakistan had claimed this, it would have evidence – Malba, satellite image or integrity of international agencies. He alleged that Congress leaders WhatsApp forward or social media rely on rumors and weakens national security. He wrote, “The Congress is behaving like Pakistan’s PR agency.”

Revanth Reddy and Rahul Gandhi’s statements
Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy asked Prime Minister Modi at a recent rally that how many Rafale aircraft were killed by Pakistan in a recent struggle. Along with this, he also questioned why an all -party meeting was not called before the war and accused the BJP government of failing to withdraw PoK. Rahul Gandhi, Foreign Minister S.K. Jayashankar accused that he informed Pakistan about the attack and asked, “How many aircraft did we lose? Who authorized it?”

Accused of question or treason on Congress?
The main question in this entire controversy is whether the opposition parties raise questions can be called anti -national? Is asking the question is a crime in democracy or does it fall under the category of treason? The BJP believes that when it comes to national security, the opposition should not doubt the army. At the same time, the Congress says that asking the government questions is their constitutional right and their duty to ensure accountability to the public.
