Defamation on social media

Hello Experts,

My family is being harassed on Social media. Some estranged relatives are spreading false rumours taking names and blatantly posting stuff on social media. They have written to professional circle on linkedin and friends on facebook. All this can be proved.  

What  action, how and where to be initiated?

You may lodge a complaint with the cyber crime wing in your jurisdiction for further action.

It's better for you to move for lodging an FIR to avoid unnecessary mental tension

If you feel  they have defamed you in social media, you can very well go for defamation case against them under IPC
