Well, you can file a Criminal Defamation Suit by filing a Police Complaint first under the concerned Section of the Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023 and then, you have to escalate this Complaint before the concerned Magistrate for FIR Registration.

To initiate a Criminal Defamation case, you can file a First Information Report (FIR) with the police under Section 500 of IPC, If the police do not take action or you want to initiate a Defamation case without filing an FIR, you can approach a Magistrate directly under Section 200 of the CrPC.
