Mumbai-based model Rhiya Ahir has filed a police complaint alleging she has been subjected to a coordinated online hate campaign after going viral during the CJP-led NEET protest at Shivaji Park. Ahir, who drew attention for standing in front of a police van carrying detained protesters, said she has faced sustained abuse, including slut-shaming, doctored social media posts and defamatory content targeting both her and her family. In her complaint, the 27-year-old argued that the harassment extends beyond criticism of her participation in the protest and is an organised attempt to damage her reputation. Police are expected to examine the allegations and the online content cited. (PC: X)
