One of the major revelations from the leaked chats seems to be Arnab’s knowledge about Balakot Air Strikes even before it were carried out. In a reported leaked chat of WhatsApp Arnab has sent a message to Parthi Dasgupta, former CEO of Broadcast Audience Research Council (BARC) who is an accused in the TRP scam case.
In the purported leaked chats, Arnab on 23 February 2019, told Dasgupta that “Something big will happen”. When Dasgupta asked if it was something about “Dawood” Arnab replied, “No sir Pakistan. Something major will be done this time”. When Dasgupta further enquired if it was about “strike or bigger” Arnab replied “Bigger than a normal strike. And also on the same time something major on Kashmir. On Pakistan the government is confident of striking in a way that people will be elated. Exact words used.”
Another purported leaked chat of Arnab shows him claiming that they have “won like crazy” after the Pulwama Terror Attack that killed 40 soldiers of the Indian Army.
