VCPL, by providing an interest-free loan entitled itself to convert the interest into 99.9 percent of the stake in RRPR, which is owned by the Roys and holds a 29.18 percent stake of NDTV.

NDTV further disclosed that the takeover was hostile and was done without any prior discussion or consent from the NDTV founders Prannoy Roy and Radhika Roy, who holds 32.26 percent in NDTV.

The rumors of NDTV’s Prime Time anchor’s resignation were also surfacing on the internet but Ravish Kumar himself came forward and tweeted, quashing all the rumors.

Ravish in his Tweet took a satirical dig at Narendra Modi like he usually does, and stated that the news of his resignation is as much true as the news of Prime Minister Narendra Modi finally agreeing to give him an interview and Akshay Kumar is waiting at the gate for him with mangoes in hand.
