Now, popular TV host Arnab Goswami’s channel, Republic TV has also been brought into this controversy. It has been reported that investigation into the TRP ratings of Republic TV has also been begun by the Mumbai police, after Republic TV’s announcement saying that BARC has reported the highest number of ratings for Republic TV this month.
