Facebook Posts & Pages Removal in Patna: the local legal context
Patna falls within the Patna High Court, whose territorial jurisdiction covers Bihar. Patna's professional and business community — including doctors, engineers, educators, and government contractors — increasingly faces online defamation through Bihar-focused Hindi portals and social media networks. The growing digital penetration in Bihar has increased the volume of reputation attacks targeting professionals across the state.
Medical and engineering professional defamation on Bihar Hindi portals
Educational institution attacks during competitive exam season
Government and infrastructure contractor false complaint campaigns
Patna content removal cases frequently involve Hindi news portals, regional YouTube channels with Bihari-Hindi reach, and Facebook groups serving the broader Bihar diaspora. Politically-motivated content during election cycles is a recurring source.
Patna High Court has no original civil side, so a civil suit starts in the competent civil court in Patna.
Highest-risk Patna industries: Politicians and policy-adjacent professionals (Hindi news-portal coordinated attacks during election cycles), educational coaching institutes serving UPSC and BPSC aspirants (competitor review attacks), and healthcare professionals.
In Patna, removal from Facebook rests on the Information Technology Act 2000 (Section 79 read with IT Rules 2021, which set platform deadlines of three hours on a court order, two hours on intimate images or impersonation of a person, and seven days on most other complaints, defamation included), criminal defamation under Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023 s.356 (formerly IPC 499/500), and civil injunctions from the competent civil court in Patna. Across 25+ cities RepuLex maintains a 97% case success rate — permanent removal, not suppression.

A formal complaint to Facebook under the IT Act 2000 and IT Rules 2021, issued through our partner law firm, and, where applicable, a defamation notice to the content originator citing BNS 2023 s.356 (formerly IPC 499/500).
Facebook must resolve a grievance within seven days under IT Rules 2021, or 36 hours for privacy complaints and impersonation of a business, act within two hours on intimate or morphed images and impersonation of a person, and act on a court order within three hours. RepuLex monitors compliance and, if the platform does not act, escalates to the Grievance Appellate Committee or, through the partner law firm, to court.
Written removal confirmation provided. Google de-indexing request filed. Patna clients receive documentary evidence of permanent content removal.
Patna professionals and businesses increasingly face false content on Facebook that damages their search rankings and professional credibility. In Bihar, that content is legally actionable under the IT Act 2000 and the IT Rules 2021: a formal complaint to the platform's Grievance Officer, issued through RepuLex's partner law firm, starts the Rules' statutory deadlines. Where the platform fails to act, an injunction is available from the competent civil court, and from Patna High Court itself only where it has an original side.
