When The News Minute asked Times Now chief Arnab Goswami yesterday about the tough questions he asked the Prime Minister in his interview, the star anchor paused a bit and said, โWell, he addressed everything, but it is for all of you to judge and I am sure you will.โ
Goswami, who is otherwise known for his fiery attacks on the interviewer, is under immense criticism for not asking tough questions and allowing the PM to get away with some non-answers.
Along with #ArnabSpeaksToPM, hashtags like #ChamchePeCharcha and #QuestionsArnabDidNotAsk were also being used.
Here is how he is being critisized online.

Terrorist Attacks. China Intrusion. Essar Tapes. Pathankot Clean Chit. None of these happened else Arnab would have asked #PMSpeaksToArnab

The only TV thingy that was more hyped than #PMSpeaksToArnab was bout between Mayweather Jr. vs Pacquiao, but both turned out be sham...

Arnab wasn't this polite even while buying his 1st condom
It's also a first for Arnab Goswami's wife to hear words like 'Absolutely', 'Agreed' in their married life. Thanks to Modi. #PMSpeaksToArnab

However, not everyone was dissatisfied with the interview.
On a very honest note, you may criticise PM @narendramodi, but his remarks on Raghuram Rajan on #PMSpeaksToArnab are mature, praiseworthy.
