The Delhi High Court granted interim protection to yoga guru Baba Ramdev’s personality rights, restraining unauthorised use of his name, image, voice, and AI-generated deepfakes. Platforms including Google, Meta, and X must remove infringing URLs within 72 hours.
In a rare and significant order, the Delhi High Court protected senior advocate Vikas Pahwa’s personality and publicity rights after his identity was misused for financial fraud. The ruling recognises that a lawyer’s reputation is built on “integrity, courtroom conduct, and trust”, not commercial endorsements.
