Dear,

I presume that you have a query to be sorted out with regard to filing criminal defamation case against one of the employees of the central government department. First of all, what made you think that you can file a criminal defamation case against him. Has any case been booked against you which has resulted in your acquittal? Please state complete facts of the case so to receive proper advice. If any case instituted against you results in your acquittal, you can file a criminal defamation case against the person by the way of a private complaint in the jurisdictional magistrate court. In addition to this, you can also file a civil defamation suit and claim compensation from the person for the damages due to defamation. Hope this helps.

Disclaimer: The above query and its response is NOT a legal opinion in any way whatsoever as this is based on the information shared by the person posting the query at lawrato.com and has been responded by one of the Divorce Lawyers at lawrato.com to address the specific facts and details.
