India has decided to buy only 36 Rafale fighter jets scrapping the earlier plan to acquire 126 of the French aircraft on grounds of huge cost.
Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar has said the UPA deal for 126 Rafales was way too expensive and it would have hampered other modernisation plans of the Indian military.
