The party’s youth wing, Indian Youth Congress, said on Wednesday that ''any effort made to defame our leaders or our party will be met with strict action, political and legal''.
A two-judge bench of Justices DY Chandrachud and Indira Banerjee was hearing an appeal against the Bombay High Court denying the bail through video conferencing.
The hearing comes two days after the Bombay High Court turned down Goswami's plea against his arrest and the reopening of the case.
The distribution head Ghanshyam Singh of Republic TV, which is run by arrested anchor Arnab Goswami, is the twelfth accused being taken into custody by Mumbai Police in connection with the television rating point (TRP) scam.
The Governor also asked the Home Minister to allow the family of Arnab Goswami to see him and to speak to him.
That Republic TV, in general, and Mr Goswami in particular, can be accused of displaying undue bias in their coverage of events in Maharashtra, especially the death of an actor, is not in doubt
'BJP wants to protest over it, they may do it as everyone has that right in a democracy,' he said.
The editorial in ''Saamana'' alleged that the previous state government "covered up" Mr Naik's suicide case to protect Mr Goswami.
Addressing a press conference Congress Spokesperson Supriya Shrinate said: "I am shocked with selective outrage by the government and BJP and it is unwarranted."
While coming in support of Goswami, the BJP said that in 'our democratic setup, independent media is a pillar but now it is being bullied'.
