Copyright © 2021 IASToppers. All rights reserved. | Page 1/26 www.iastoppers.com Background: The Union Minister Mr. Akbar was accused of sexual harassment in 2018 in the wake of #MeToo movement. In response, the Union Minister filed a criminal defamation case against the journalist in October 2018. What is Defamation? Defamation is the general term for a legal claim involving injury to one's reputation caused by a false statement of fact and includes both libel (defamation in written or fixed form) and slander (spoken defamation). Laws for defamation: Section 499 of IPC primarily governs the law on defamation; however, it is pertinent to note that the law has been extended to "electronic documents". Section 469 of the IPC (forgery for purpose of harming reputation) has been amended by the Information Technology Act, 2000 to include 'electronic record forged'. Section 500 lays down the punishment for criminal defamation. Section 500: Whoever defames another shall be punished with simple imprisonment for a term which may extend to two years, or with fine, or with both. It is noteworthy that Section 499 of the IPC, 1860 has remained unaltered for the last 158 years. Types of defamation: Civil: In civil defamation a person who is defamed can move either High Court or subordinate courts and seek damages in the form of monetary compensation.

Khajuraho is a beautiful village situated in Chhatarpur district in Madhya Pradesh with an old-fashioned, rural ambience and a rich cultural legacy. The World Heritage Day is celebrated on April 18 to create awareness among the people to conserve and protect the valuable assets and cultural heritage across the world. Heritage is something which is specific and typical of a place or region. Buildings of historic and architectural significance become part of the cultural heritage of a city and the society. Cultural heritage is the creation of human beings, who have created it by virtue of their innovative power, creativity and artistic ability. The monuments and the cultural activities associated with the monuments play a very important role in the lifestyle of the people of India and give a special identity to them. It is necessary to improve awareness of cultural heritage due to its historical, social, aesthetic and scientific significance. Historical significance refers to the relationship to era, person or event.
