On the other hand, Anil Ambani has been the target of Congress president Rahul Gandhi who accuse Prime Minister Narendra Modi of "bypassing" the Rafale deal (buying of 36 fighter jets from France by India) and giving the offset contract to Mukesh Ambani's brother.
The Rafale deal has been the potboiling issue which has led to a major face-off between the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Congress.
Deora is contesting from South Mumbai constituency in the ongoing Lok Sabha polls.'
