BJP Leader's Twitter Rant: Defamation & Secondary Evidence
evidence ailet intermediate news_to_lawKya yaar, recently I saw BJP leader's Twitter rant against a journo and it got me thinking. Ye to Section 65-B of the Evidence Act ke liye ek perfect example hai. So, a Twitter post can be considered secondary evidence under this section. Ab kya hai primary evidence? Ek affidavit, jo ki a direct witness de raha hai, woh primary evidence hai. Lekin is BJP leader ne aisi koshish ki ki unka Twitter post secondary evidence ban jaaye, jo ki a witness ke affidavit se zyada credible hai. Aur hum kya samajh rahe hai? Koi bhi secondary evidence accept kr raha hai. Mainey ye question 3 baar padha aur abhi bhi samajh nahi aaya 😭.

Maine aapki baat suni hai, lekin main aisa nahin samjhta. Ye Twitter rant kyon secondary evidence ka madaam karte hain? Ye defamatory post kiya hai, toh uski validity ko jaanchna chahiye, ki us post mein sachchai hai ya nahin. Lekin agar koi secondary evidence hai, toh wo us post ko justify karte hain.
