Facebook Posts & Pages Removal in Pune: the local legal context
Pune falls within the Bombay High Court. Pune's educated workforce, prominent engineering and education sectors, and growing startup ecosystem generate a distinct set of ORM cases: Glassdoor attacks targeting IT companies during campus recruitment, false reviews against coaching and educational institutions, and social media defamation targeting Pune-based startup founders.
Glassdoor reviews targeting Pune IT companies during hiring
False reviews on educational and coaching institution platforms
Startup founder defamation linked to competitor disputes
Pune cases are increasingly dominated by Glassdoor and Quora — the city's IT services and education concentrations make employer-rating sites and academic-discussion platforms primary attack vectors. Marathi-language YouTube content is a secondary but growing source of defamation petitions.
Pune falls within the Bombay High Court, whose principal seat is in Mumbai. The High Court's original side covers Mumbai only, so a civil suit starts in the competent civil court in Pune.
Highest-risk Pune industries: IT services companies (Glassdoor employer-rating attacks), educational institutions and edtech (anonymous student-review portal attacks), and automobile-sector executives (industry-forum defamation during competitive product launches).
In Pune, 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 Pune. 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. Pune clients receive documentary evidence of permanent content removal.
Pune professionals and businesses increasingly face false content on Facebook that damages their search rankings and professional credibility. In Maharashtra, 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 Bombay High Court itself only where it has an original side.
