India, Feb. 2 -- Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, on Monday cleared the air over his recent comments on the government's handling of the 2020 China border clash, which led to an uproar in the Lok Sabha.

The Rae Bareilly MP clarified that this is the perspective of former Army Chief, referring to Gen (retd) M M Naravane and his unpublished memoir.

"This is not me, this is what the Army Chief (former) has written in a book," Gandhi was quoted by news agency PTI as saying.

Gandhi further said that the book is not being allowed to be published and called it "languishing".

"Why are they so scared of the Army Chief's perspective? Why are they so scared of what the Army Chief has to say?" Gandhi added.
