Information and Broadcasting Minister Prakash Javadekar condemns the attack on Republic TV editor-in-chief Arnab Goswami. "We condemn the attempt to attack Arnab Goswami. We condemn every attack on any journalist. This is against democracy and it is really ironical that those who preach tolerance have become so intolerant. Therefore we condemn this attempt. We appeal to the collective wisdom that this is undemocratic and as per present law police definitely takes action if there is a complaint."

Arnab Goswami and his wife were attacked early this morning in Mumbai by two unknown persons while they were driving home from their studio. A police complaint has been registered, details awaited. Both Arnab and Samia Goswami were unhurt in the attack. Goswami has blamed Sonia Gandhi for the attack. Two people have been arrested and an FIR has been filed.
