New Delhi: Reacting to an NDTV report that defence documents were forged for a 300 million dollar aircraft deal for the Border Security Force (BSF), the Ministry of Defence is likely to scrap the deal.
The documents are related to purchase of two transport planes for BSF from Spanish firm.
The Central Forensic Laboratory (CFSL) has proved that signatures of top Air Force and BSF officers had been forged.
Forged documents show that state-of-the-art equipment originally agreed upon was replaced with old outdated material. And the documents reportedly never left the Air Force headquarters.
The Home Ministry has formally complained to the Defence Ministry on the issue.
