Nishant Pitti, Founder and Chairman of Travel major EaseMyTrip on Friday penned an emotional note after the Patiala House Court in Delhi granted him an interim injunction directing removal of offending publications against him.
In a post on X, Pitti wrote, "On 1 October 2026, the Patiala House Court, New Delhi, granted an interim injunction directing the removal of offending publications against me and restraining the publication of false, defamatory and misleading content concerning me. Behind every headline is a person, a family and years of effort that few people ever see. For 22 years, I have given my heart to building a dream. The sleepless nights, the sacrifices, the setbacks and the responsibility towards those who trusted me have shaped my life." "The past few days have hurt deeply. But the hardest part has been watching my family carry that pain. They have lived every struggle with me, and seeing them suffer is more painful than anything written about me. To everyone who called, reached out or quietly stood beside me, thank you. At a time when words caused so much pain, your kindness gave me strength. I am hurt, but my hope and determination remain. I still have dreams to build, promises to honour and people to make proud," Nishant Pitti further said. Earlier, in March this year, Nishant Pitti, was named "India's Most Influential Entrepreneur" at the National Leadership Summit & Awards 2026. EaseMyTrip noted that this award highlights his impact on the industry.
