Is there a case for defamation lawsuit?
by Jai Max on Jul 26, 2008 11:34 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

This irresponsible statement of Yetchury implicates not only the high office of the Speaker but also others like the Secretary General of the Lok Sabha who works under the speaker. Is it not then a defamation of the people working in the office of the Speaker. Are these citizens not entitled to a defamation lawsuit against Yetchury?

After all, he has made this statement outside parliament. Moreover, while media persons are not required by convention to disclose their sources, any one else quoting the media is required to divulge the names of their media sources.
