You can always file a written complaint with the police station of your area regarding your grievances. And try to satisfy them to register a FIR against the culprits. And if they don’t you can file for 156(3) or you can also file a direct defamation in the court that comes within your jurisdiction.

You have the option of both civil and criminal proceedings. Civil if you’re looking for Compensation. Complaint Under Criminal Law u/s Sec 499 IPC can be made. You will need to showcase how the same has harmed you and your reputation.
