Arnab Goswami lied.

Rajdeep Sardesai called him out on Twitter.

That happened yesterday.

Today, Twitter users have unleashed their creative fury on Arnab and have successfully trended #ArnabDidIt. Before we tell you in detail, sample these -

For those who don't know yet, here's what transpired on Twitter yesterday.

Arnab Goswami and Rajdeep Sardesai, two senior journalists in India, used to work together at NDTV. During Gujarat riots of 2002, NDTV had sent its journalists to the state to cover the event. Rajdeep Sardesai, then Arnab's senior, was on the ground with a few other colleagues but not Arnab. Arnab did go to Gujarat during the time and did report from there, but what he did not experience first-hand was something Sardesai did.

Speaking during an event organised in Assam, when the Congress government was in power there, Arnab claimed to go through something he did not in reality. This is what he said in the video that has now gone viral.

"2002. And we came out 50 meters from his residence, we are stopped, suddenly our ambassador car is stopped and there are people who are breaking the windows with "trishuls". All the windows are broken. It is almost as if there are trishuls all around. I know it's very unsavoury, but I must share with you the reality of life as I've seen it. When that happens, we are all told to reveal our religion. It is 50 metres from the chief minister's house. How it happened, I don't know. We said we are journalists. "No, No, what is your religion? What is your religion?". And, thankfully, let me tell you, there was nobody from the minority community with us. But one of our people; we had our identity cards, press cards. My driver did not have a press card. And I look at... I was sitting in the front [of the car]. I've an obsession of sitting in the front seat; I looked to my right and I can see the look on my driver's face. When people talk about secularism, I've seen hate from up close and I know that group of people could have killed him. He had a tattoo. He put up a "Hey Ram" or something on his... it is not a tattoo, it is just an imprint that you put which stays with you. He showed that and we walked out. But I saw for that moment how scared you..." [video abruptly ends]

Watch the video here:

What happened on the night of March 2 was described in Rajdeep Sardesai's book 2014: The Election that Changed India. The incident Arnab narrated happened, just that Rajdeep Sardesai and his team were the ones who went through the ordeal and not Arnab.

In simple words, Arnab Goswami, the Editor-in-Chief of Republic TV, lied about the entire episode and presented the incident as if he was the one who faced it.

Yes.

Now, since Arnab claimed to go through something he actually didn't, Twitter users are now crediting him for a wide range of incidents. They are using #ArnabDidIt to share these jokes. For instance...
