Former BARC CEO Partho Dasgupta is accused of misusing his official position and conniving with ARG Outlier Media and Arnab Goswami.
MUMBAI: Former BARC CEO Partho Dasgupta’s lawyer told the Bombay high court on Monday that Republic TV’s Arnab Goswami was the “main person” in the TRP manipulation scam according to the prosecution.
Counsel Shardul Singh was responding to a query from Justice P D Naik as to who, according to the police, was the main person in the case and what was Dasgupta’s role. Public prosecutor Deepak Thakare said that the additional chargesheet filed in the case had mentioned Dasgupta as the “mastermind” of the scam.
