In a landmark ruling, the Delhi High Court has ordered Trinamool Congress Member of Parliament Saket Gokhale to pay a hefty sum of ₹50 lakhs in damages to Lakshmi Puri, the wife of Union Minister Hardeep Puri, in a defamation case filed against him. The court found Gokhale guilty of making false and malicious statements against Mrs. Puri, tarnishing her reputation and causing irreparable harm.
The defamation case stemmed from a series of tweets and social media posts made by Gokhale, alleging misconduct and corruption on the part of Mrs. Puri. The court determined that these allegations were baseless and lacked any credible evidence to support them. As a result, Gokhale was ordered to pay a substantial amount in damages as a form of compensation for the harm caused to Mrs. Puri’s reputation and dignity.
In addition to the financial penalty, the court also directed Gokhale to issue a public apology in the Times of India newspaper and on his Twitter handle. This public apology is intended to rectify the damage done by his defamatory statements and to publicly acknowledge the falsehood of his claims against Mrs. Puri.
The ruling has been hailed as a victory for truth and justice, sending a strong message that defamation and character assassination will not be tolerated in the court of law. It serves as a reminder that freedom of speech is not a license to spread lies and misinformation, especially at the expense of someone’s reputation and livelihood.
