The court has ordered closure of several websites and YouTube channels, which were running fake videos and content of Sadhguru. Social media companies have also been asked to give information about these accounts. Along with this, the Department of Telecom and Electronics and IT Ministry have also been instructed to block such websites and accounts.

The antics of these ‘fraudulent websites’ may misuse the intellectual property of these people, so they need to be given the right protection.
