Information and Broadcasting Minister Prakash Javadekar slammed the Congress for allegedly targeting the media and said trampling on media freedom will not be tolerated by the people of India.
 
His reaction came yesterday after the Mumbai Police claimed to have arrested few people in alleged Television Rating Points (TRP) manipulation.
 
Mr. Javadekar said that free press is a defining feature of India’s democracy and a cherished ideal of the Constitution.
 
He added that targeting of the media by Congress and its allies is against all principles of democracy.
