In section 499, the words " makes or published any imputation" should be interpreted as words supplementing to each others. A maker of imputation without publicatin is not liable to be punished under that section; Bilal Ahmed Kaloo v.State of Andhra Pradesh,(1997) 7 Supreme Today 127.

Under  sec.500 Ipc Punishment for defamation - Whoever defames another shall be punished with simple imprisonment for a term which may extend to two years, or with fine, or with both.
