For defamation, publication of imputations is necessary. By filing reply in a legal proceeding or giving evidence in support thereof, the imputations are not published. So, there are remote chances of your succeeding in a defamation case. However, you may file an application praying the court to proceed against her under section 340 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973.
