Mumbai Police have issued legal notices to 24 Twitter account holders over a documentary posted by tech entrepreneur Sabeer Bhatia, alleging false and disparaging claims about Prime Minister Narendra Modi and industrialist Gautam Adani. The notices were issued on October 18, days after the documentary sparked controversy. The content allegedly contained false, misleading, and disparaging statements against the company, causing harm to its reputation, goodwill, and public image.

The police asked account holders to remove or disable access to the content, which violated platform guidelines and constituted offenses under Sections 352 (intentional insult) and 356 (defamation) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
