Imphal, February 08 2015:
With reference to a news item in a section of the media that "At Aero India, PM may fly in a Rafale", PIB (defence wing) has clarified that there is no plan for the Prime Minister Narendra Modi to fly in any fighter jet.
The news item is incorrect, misconceived and is not based on facts, said a release issued by PRO Defence, Imphal.
It was further clarified that the conduct of Aero India, a premier aero-show of Asia, has no linkage with any of the acquisition plans pursued by the Ministry of Defence.
Aero India- 2015, to be held in Bengaluru from February 18 to 22, will witness the participation of most of the original defence equipment manufactures from across the globe.
