The Maharaj Libel Case was an 1862 trial in the Bombay High Court in the Bombay Presidency, British India. The case was filed by Jadunathjee Brajratanjee Maharaj, against Nanabhai Rustomji Ranina and Karsandas Mulji. The case was filed because of an editorial article published by them accusing the Vallabhacharya and Pushtimarg Sect. This case highlighted conflicts between traditional yet controversial social practices such as charan seva and emerging reformist ideas in colonial India, garnering significant public attention and praise for Mulji's efforts.[1][2][3][4]
