        My name is Rahul Gupta and I am a content creator known as “Ballia wale Rahul Bhaiya”.

        I am going through a very serious issue and I genuinely need help and guidance.

        I previously had an Instagram page named “Ballia wale Bhaiya” with over 200,000 followers. All the content on that page was completely original — I personally shot and edited every video.

        Despite that, my account was suspended due to fake copyright claims on my own content.

        I submitted appeals, but I never received any proper resolution. It has now been more than a year, and my account was never restored.

        After that, I started again from scratch and created a new page called “Ballia wale Rahul Bhaiya”. I worked hard and rebuilt it to around 75,000 followers.

        However, on March 31, I again received a copyright strike on my own original video — even though I still have the full raw footage and proof.

        I truly do not understand why this is happening to me repeatedly.

        This situation has affected me mentally and financially. Social media was my only source of income, and now I am struggling to continue.

        If anyone has faced a similar issue or knows how to resolve false copyright claims on Instagram, please guide me.

        I am fully ready to provide proof that the content is mine.

        🙏 Any help or support would mean a lot.

          I am sorry I am not on Instagram and hence cannot access your page.. what is the content that you create exactly? And do you use clips from any other websites or articles or anything like that?
