CJP's Saurav Das moves Delhi HC against Abhijit Iyer-Mitra, LawBeat and Pamphlet for revealing his address

Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) spokesperson and activist Saurav Das has moved the Delhi High Court against media commentator Abhijit Iyer-Mitra, media platform The Pamphlet, legal news platform Law Beat, social media accounts The Jaipur Dialogues and The Sunday Guardian for allegedly putting his residential address and personal information in public domain..Das has sought damages of over ₹2 crore for violating his privacy. He has also sought permanent injunctions restraining Iyer-Mitra, The Pamphlet, Law Beat, The Jaipur Dialogues and The Sunday Guardian from publishing, circulating or disclosing his residential address and directions to them to remove and disable public access to the videos and posts giving those details. Directions have also been sought to X Corp and Google to take down the content revealing the information and to prevent further dissemination of the content. .Das has said that he has been living in a rented room on the ground floor of a Greater Kailash-I property since early 2025 and that representatives of The Pamphlet trespassed into the shared residential premises, recorded its interiors and published the footage on social media platform X on August 5. The video, which allegedly disclosed his residential address, has garnered over 2.1 million views and was republished on August 10, it has been stated. According to Das' suit, Iyer-Mitra disclosed Das' address on a Law Beat programme by naming his neighbour and incorrectly stating the rent at around ₹7 lakh a month. He states that Iyer-Mitra subsequently published multiple posts containing the information. Das said he lodged a police complaint on August 5 and notified the defendants of the security risks, but the alleged disclosures continued."Nevertheless, the Plaintiff’s Residential Information continued to be published and recirculated by the Defendants. The repeated disclosures, viewed together with the Plaintiff’s prior exposure to violent threats, materially increases the possibility of his home being located by hostile persons and expose the Plaintiff, his family members other occupants of the premises to intimidation, harassment and physical violence," the suit states.
