Popular YouTuber Gaurav Taneja aka Flying Beast on Thursday announced via his Twitter handle that the Delhi High Court had ordered Live Mint, a subsidiary of Hindustan Times to remove all the Tweets and articles that were directed to defame the YouTuber and his family.

For those who don’t know, journalist Shepali Bhatt had put out an article on Live Mint claiming that Gaurav Taneja’s daily vlogs are often called out for misogyny, child abuse and political propaganda. This was after the YouTuber has tweeted a picture of himself with his wife and daughter performing a housewarming ritual.

In the tweet, Gaurav Taneja had also claimed that the Hindu ritual performing Havan or ‘Agnihotra’ purifies the air and also removes the pollutants. However, this claim was disputed by tweeple on social media.

Following that journalist Shepali Bhatt had written an article on Live Mint calling for popular brands like Airtel, Mama Earth, Google India, Tata Cliq and several others to disassociate from supporting the popular Flying Beats channel.
