Independent journalist Ambuj Kumar reported that Meta demonetised two of his Facebook pages—"Lokhit India" and "Ambuj Kumar – Lokhit India"—with over 950,000 and 1.2 million followers respectively, citing unoriginal content guidelines. Kumar disputes the decision, claiming he produces original content and holds documentation proving authorship and licensing. He has filed an appeal and is seeking Meta to conduct a fair human review, identify specific violations and restore monetisation if the decision was in error.
