On February 19, 2023, a media statement issued by Rohini Sindhuri contained defamatory remarks about D. Roopa Moudgil. The statement, which was later shared widely on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) and reached lakhs of viewers, has reportedly caused significant damage to Moudgil’s reputation, both professionally and personally.
