"They show many conspiracies & unprecedented access to power in this govt; gross abuse of his media & his position as power broker. In any Rule of law country, he would be in jail for long (sic)," he added.

The Congress has targeted the BJP in this matter. Congress spokesperson Sachin Sawant has said that it is now clear that the BJP and the Modi government at the center are also involved in the TRP scam.

Sawant said that a lot of new questions have arisen after the talks of Goswami and Partho Dasgupta were leaked.

Sawant said that Mumbai Police has busted the TRP scam. Republic channel is also under investigation in this TRP scam. Former BARC chief Partho Das Gupta has been arrested. 

He added Modi government and BJP at the Center have been trying to suppress the investigation of this TRP scam since the beginning. Therefore, a new case was registered in Uttar Pradesh and an attempt was made to infiltrate the CBI in this investigation. After Arnab Goswami's WhatsApp chat surfaced, it became clear what the entire venture was being done for.
