Mumbai: Republic TV’s Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami was on Wednesday morning arrested by Mumbai Police from his residence in a reported case of abetment to suicide of a 53-year-old architect.

The move by Mumbai Police on Wednesday morning received a mixed reaction with several union ministers and BJP leaders including Union Home Minister Amit Shah, slamming the arrest of Goswami.

However, Twitter users in India lauded the move by Mumbai Police and added that Goswami’s arrest was justified alleging his role in architect Anvay Naik's suicide case.

The users took to the micro-blogging site and soon, hashtag #WellDoneMumbaiPolice was among the top three trending topics on Twitter in India.

Here are some of the tweets from Wednesday’s campaign where the users were seen lauding Mumbai Police for arresting Goswami.

ISLAMABAD: At least two more cases of poliovirus were reported in Pakistan, taking the number of infections to 52 so far this year, a report said on Friday.

“The Regional Reference Laboratory for Polio Eradication at the National Institute of Health has confirmed the detection of two more wild poliovirus type 1 (WPV1) cases in Pakistan," an official statement said.

The fresh infections — a boy and a girl — were reported from the Dera Ismail Khan district of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province.

“Genetic sequencing of the samples collected from the children is underway," the statement read. Dera Ismail Khan, one of the seven polio-endemic districts of southern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, has reported five polio cases so far this year.

Of the 52 cases in the country this year, 24 are from Balochistan, 13 from Sindh, 13 from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and one each from Punjab and Islamabad.

There is no cure for polio. Only multiple doses of the oral polio vaccine and completion of the routine vaccination schedule for all children under the age of five can keep them protected.
