Defamation:

Defamation is harming someone's reputation in speech with falsehoods is known as slander, and

Defamation may be committed in two ways, Slander (speech) or Libel (writing) and its
equivalent modes. The slander is a spoken defamation while the libel a written defamation which
may assume various forms, like physical symbols, statues, effigies, picture, caricature, wax
model, etc. To slander also various forms have been attributed. It may be committed by

head, nod, winking, hissing, and many others.
Essentials of Defamation: An obvious question arises about essentials of defamation under
Law. There are four essentials of the tort of defamation, namely: there must be a defamatory
statement, the defamatory statement must be understood by right thinking or reasonable minded
persons as referring to the plaintiff, there must be publication of the defamatory statement, that
is to say, it must be communicated to some person other than the plaintiff himself, and in case of
slander either there must be proof of special damages or the slander must come within the serious
classes of cases in which it is actionable per se.
Defences: This Practice Note introduces the defences to a claim for defamation, examines key
case law in this area. The principal defences are justification, honest comment, absolute
privilege, qualified privilege at common law, statutory qualified privilege, publication on a
matter of public interest, offer of amends, and defences for internet and secondary publishers.

Sedition: is the act of encouraging rebellion against the government, or an action that promotes
such rebellion, such as through speech or writing. The difference between treason and sedition,

treasonous actions. Legally, sedition is typically considered a less serious offense than treason.
