Republic TV Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami on Wednesday appeared before the N.M. Joshi Marg Police station at 2 p.m. after being summoned in a case about alleged provocative comments.
Police had summoned Goswami for interrogation in connection with a complaint filed against him for allegedly creating communal disturbance through his TV show aired on April 29.
Speaking to reporters outside the police station, Goswami alleged "political vendetta and deliberate obstruction to his media duty" by Mumbai police and urged media fraternity to unite.
"I am at the N M Joshi Marg police station. My CFO has been interrogated for six hours and I am waiting for three hours to go in next. This is clear and blatant political vendetta. The Vadra Congress is blatantly misusing the Mumbai police. But like always, they will fail.
"I stand by every minute of our Palghar and Bandra migrants'' protest coverage. The New media in a new India is becoming stronger. It is time for the Lutyens brigade to introspect," Goswami said.
