Libel:&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Two types of defamation are Libel &amp; Slander.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Libel is an untrue statement made in writing and Slander is an untrue statement said orally. It means defamation can be made via any medium. Any false statement against the government or president if printed comes under the Sedition&nbsp; Act of 1798.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Supreme Court said that a statement against a public figure is libel only if it is known to be false or the speaker has reckless disregard for truth while making it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">a) Statement must be defamatory:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Statement must be so that it must lower the reputation of the plaintiff. A person cannot take defence that statement was not intended to be defamatory although it caused hatred or dislike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In case of <em>Ram Jethmalani v. Subramaniam Swamy <\/em>Dr. Swamy was held liable for defaming Mr. Jethmalani by making a statement he received that he received money from banned organisation to protect the then CM of Tamil Nadu in the case of the assassination of Rajiv Gandhi<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">b) Reference to Plaintiff:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The plaintiff has to prove that the statement of which he has complained referred specifically to him, it will be immaterial that the defendant did not intend to defame the plaintiff. If the person to whom the statement was published could reasonably understand that the statement is referred to him, the defendant will then be liable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">c) Statement must be published:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Publication of defamatory or false statements to some person other than the person defamed is the most important aspect of making the person liable and unless that is done no action for defamation will lie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In <em>Mahendra Ram V. Harnandan Prasad, the defendant<\/em> was held liable for sending the defamatory letter to the plaintiff in Urdu knowing that the defendant is not able to read Urdu and it is possible that another person will read in order to explain to him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Husband &amp; Wife:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the eyes of law, spouses are considered as one person so any communication of defamatory form from husband to wife or vice- versa is no publication and cannot come under the purview of section 499 &amp; section 500 of IPC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leadindia.law\/\">Lead India <\/a>has best lawyers who can guide you in your issue for defamation.
