Arnab Goswami summoned by Kerala Court for allegedly calling Malayalis 'shameless'


Daijiworld Media Network

Kannur, Mar 21: Editor-in-Chief of Republic TV Arnab Goswami is summoned by a Judicial First Class Magistrate’s Court in Kannur, for calling people of Kerala ‘shameless’ during a debate on his channel.

A complaint against Goswami was filed by CPI (M) leader P Sasi for insulting the people of Kerala during a debate on whether the Centre had refused to accept aid from UAE government to Kerala for flood relief.

The court admitted his petition and summoned the journalist to appear before the bench on June 20.

According to a report in Mathrubhumi, Arnab had said, “This group is shameless, is the most shameless bunch of Indians I have ever seen, they have gone around spreading the lie religiously. I don't know what they get for it. Whether they get paid for it? Do they get paid money for abusing their own country? Are they part of a group who are they funded by? Point is it is a conspiracy to malign India.”

Sasi has demanded that Arnab issues an unconditional apology and a donation of Rs 10 crore to chief minister’s disaster relief fund.

Sasi was quoted telling media that Arnab was propagating violence and belittling Malayalees. He demanded that Arnab has to seek pardon in the same significance as the discussion broadcasted in his channel.

However, a report on NewsLaundry that analysed the news telecast had said that the anchor was referring to Congress, Left and 'tukde-tukde gang' as shameless and not Malayalis.

    Sasi has demanded that Arnab issues an unconditional apology and a "donation of Rs 10 crore" to chief minister’s disaster relief fund. So, that these people can enjoy the "donation". In Malayalam they say "puttu adika"....10 koti yude puttu adika. Already lot of fund for flood victims have been misused and they have not reached the real flood victims..middlemen and politicians eating them up.

    It is an utter shame for Arnab Goswami to make to make such statements. Maybe you are out of sensible words. Arnab, as an editor you have to talk the right way feasible which suits all.

    If you ever seen his news anchoring one might get the doubt that he calls people for debate just to insult them as his philosophy is biased and leaning towards one party very clearly

    Just wondering how repeatedly some participants joining his new hours and get them selves insulted again and again.
    This anchor is best example to invoke hate, provoke people for his own sake.
    We should stop such kind of journalisms. It’s reduculouse!
    People awareness is required.

    This guy used to call every corrupt and criminal the minute any court case is filed against them. This guy used to even publicly seek their resignations.

    Will it apply to him as well? What we can call a person who preaches all but does not believe in it for himself?
