Rahul Gandhi should click refresh memory button as command posts issue was Congress legacy: BJP

NEW DELHI: The BJP welcomed the Supreme Court's order on Monday to grant permanent commission to all women officers in the Army, and attacked the Congress by saying that the denial of the posts was its legacy.

"Mr Rahul Gandhi please click the refresh memory button. It was Congress govt that argued vociferously against permanent commissioning of women in the Army back in 2010 before the Delhi HC," BJP MP Meenakshi Lekhi, who represented the women officers in the apex court, said. 

"It was your govt who challenged the decision before the SC which ruled in favour of women," Lekhi said at a press conference at the party headquarters in New Delhi.
