Former defence minister and senior Congress leader AK Antony Monday said Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi never interfered in any defence deals and accused the BJP of "manufacturing" lies.
"Government, BJP misusing agencies to manufacture lies. Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi never interfered in defence deal," Antony told reporters.
His comments came after the Congress and the BJP engaged in a slugfest on Sunday.
