Defamation

1. yes you can file a complaint alleging defamation. Will it succeed? Repondent in its defence will show that what he showed is the truth and nothing false has been said or showed by him. You will have to establish that your gym has reputation, that the words etc. used by the respondent were defamatory and that the reputation has thereby suffered. you will have to further show in this case that what the respondent has said or done is false. 

2. defamation can be made out, subject to conditions in point 1. if there is any contract between the staff and the employer, action can be taken on the basis of the clauses in it. you can file for monetary damages that have accrued on account of the act of staff members. relieve them off their duties. hire new staff that respects the establishment and other staff members. if you don't have strict clauses in your agreement between you and your staff, get on with it now. 

Yes, you can proceed for defamation both in crminal law and also in civillaw where you can claim damages. The contents were made in public at large and tarnished the image of GYM. Consult a lawyer with details.

You can file defamation case against the gym members and staff of your gym. 

You can file cases. But cases will go on for months and years. Defamation cases can be used to harras persons. But one can never say whether and when intended results will come.

Dear Dr. MPS Ramani,

Now Govt. has appointed more judges for early disposal of cases. I feel that client should be more vigillant and should attend cases every date then client will find that case is moving fast. And persons instead of taking law in their hands visit court for redressing grievances.
