If someone damages your reputation
by way of slander or libel, you may have grounds to sue for defamation.
Defamation can be viewed criminal as well as civil offence. under Sec- 499 & 500 of Indian Panel Code victim can be filed a criminal case for defamation against the accused. Punishment for the guilty person is simple imprisonment which may extend for 2 years or fine or both. for civil suit you can move High court or subordinate court under Law of tort for damages in the form of monetary compensation..
The internet is not a lawyer and neither are you.
Talk to a real lawyer about your legal issue.

Dear,
Section 354(d) is a non compoundable offence which means that the matter cannot be compromised between the parties and both the accused and the de-facto complainant should approach high court for quashing the matter along with the compromise terms and conditions both the parties entered into (compromise deed/agreement). As you are saying that there is no chance of compromise between you and the de-facto complainant as you have strong evidences at your disposal against the de-facto complainant, tell the police that you are not ready for compromise and that you will contest the case. The police after completion of investigation will file the charge sheet in the court. Once the charge sheet is filed, case will come for trial and once it happens, engage a criminal lawyer, contest the trial and dismiss the case on merits.
