Answer #2

Defamation is dealt under Section 499 of the IPC. When someone makes or publishes an incorrect or inaccurate statement, accusation, or false imputation about another person, whether through words, oral communication, visual cues, or any other means, it is referred to as defaming that person.

Answer #3

You have to be more precise.. what kind of fake news..? How is it impacting you or the society....? what kind of financial crime... ? The Acts and law will differ when you start explaining in detail... These are usually a White Collar Crimes.. As of now, as Financial crime is involved then IPC sections(like Cheating,Fraud and many more) ,Enforcement Directorate sections may be charged, all media channels will also have YouTube channels so invoking Information Technology act is easy.....These are the basics that I could interpret from your statement....So be Precise and reveal everything so that we could know exactly which Acts, which sections can be pressed.....It is not only the amount it is also the process through which they do financial crime... I hope my message is delivered to you clearly
