Gaurav Bhatia files ₹2 cr defamation suit against Saurav Das, other CJP leaders over AI-generated post
BJP leader and senior advocate Gaurav Bhatia has filed a defamation suit before the Delhi High Court against CJP, its leaders Abhijeet Dipke and Ashutosh Ranka, and Saurav Das over alleged defamatory social media posts.
Bharatiya Janata Party leader Gaurav Bhatia has filed a ₹2 crore defamation lawsuit against the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) and its leaders Abhijeet Dipke, Ashutosh Ranka, and Saurav Das over allegedly defamatory social media posts. The case was filed in the Delhi High Court to seek an injunction against the defendants from publishing or circulating the content, which allegedly falsely attributed remarks concerning Swatantra Bhardwaj to Bhatia.
The dispute arose following the circulation of an AI-generated graphic on social media platform X. Bhatia denied the allegations and asked Das to remove the post and apologize. However, Bhatia claims that the content continued to be circulated and amplified by others, including Das and Ranka, who reposted the graphic with a mocking caption.
Bhatia alleges that the circulation of the posts damaged his reputation and professional standing, and that the defendants' actions amounted to a broader attack on constitutional institutions, including the judiciary.
