What should I do if someone spreads a fake marriage certificate?

One person (a far relative) has a fake marriage certificate in which he claims that we were married in 2017. He is now defaming and harassing me by spreading this fake marriage certificate to my relatives. I don't know how this certificate was issued by him. What should I do? Please help me. I checked the certificate on the UP government website, and there is no such record. Please guide me.

If someone is spreading a fake marriage certificate, you should report it to the police and file a complaint for defamation and forgery. Since the certificate isn’t valid, you can present evidence (such as the government website showing no record) to prove it’s fake. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
