Rahul Gandhi calls govt's Great Nicobar project a 'scam', BJP hits back

Congress' Rahul Gandhi called Great Nicobar project on Great Nicobar Island a "scam" and a “grave crime” against nature. Hitting back, BJP said, "Rahul is speaking...language of those who're inimical to India’s strategic interests." Notably, the island is situated near Malacca Strait, key trade route, and is expected to secure India's maritime interests. India's around 55% trade passes through it.
