MUMBAI: With a plethora of news channels dawning the indian television, competition is bound to scale new heights.
Aaj Tak claims it's exclusive coverage on the Surendra Shetty case and Madhumita murder case has taken it way ahead of the other news channels in the country.
An official release states that Aaj Tak was the only channel that aired the taped conversation between Surendra Shetty and the underworld, Surendra Shetty and Pankaj Agarwal (Praful Sarees) and Pankaj Agarwal and the underworld, thus clearly establishing a nexus between Surendra Shetty and the underworld, and demonstrating how Pankaj Agarwal was subjected to arm-twisting through the underworld. These tapes were played exclusive on Aaj Tak on 19 May starting 7:00 am, adds the release.
The channel which was the first to conduct and air an interview with Pankaj Agarwal, also managed a breakthrough in the Madhumita Shukla murder case. The channel was able to lay its hands on the cell-phone records of Madhumita which clearly showed that Amar Mani Tripathi had made 22 calls on her phone the day she was murdered. This clearly negates all claims by Amar Mani that he has not been in touch with Madhumita in the last 3 years, the release adds.
