Dear Querist, this would entirely depend on whether the articles in question can be said to have defamed you in any manner. If so, you could file a suit for damages and injunction. Please feel free to get in touch if you require any further clarifications. Best Regards, Dhruv Banerji.

Yes you can file suit if you find anything false or disturbing and so also claim damages for mental torture.
Quicker remedy would be filing complaint before Press Council of India in case the newspaper publisher is not following norms which they are required to.
