In the petition, Himayani Puri has also demanded damages of Rs 10 crore and requested the court to stop the concerned platforms and other institutions from spreading such defamatory content.

According to the petition, since around February 22, 2026, misleading and false content is being spread against him on many platforms including Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn.

It was also said in the court that these allegations have caused serious damage to his image and professional reputation. Further hearing in the case is going on.
