A court here Wednesday allowed Mumbai police`s plea seeking to withdraw the `fake TRP` case where some TV channels were accused of inflating their viewership numbers by fraudulent means. No `victims` came forward to buttress the case and police felt it would not lead to convictions, the prosecution stated in its application before the Metropolitan Magistrate at Esplanade Court, reported news wire PTI.
Journalist Arnab Goswami was among those named as accused in the case, which was registered after Broadcast Audience Research Council (BARC) lodged a complaint in October 2020, through Hansa Research Group, alleging that certain television channels were rigging TRP numbers.
