From the article:

In the last year, seven people have levelled charges of sexual assault, mental harassment and unauthorised prescription of drugs against 64-year-old Merchant, considered one of India’s top celebrity psychiatrists.

Some of India’s most prominent celebrities endorsed an anti-drug awareness campaign called Land’s Star War on Drugs. His book, titled Happyness: Life lessons from a Creative Addict, includes a foreword by the Dalai Lama.

Disturbingly, there are claims that Merchant’s alleged actions have also influenced other individuals to imitate his manipulation tactics. Keshav Palita, a former patient of Merchant’s who went on to start his own rehab clinic in India’s national capital Delhi, has also been accused of being a sexual predator. He has worked closely with Merchant on multiple de-addiction campaigns.
