Accept that "You are a public figure and you have to face criticism," Chief Minister Jayalalithaa was told by the Supreme Court today, strongly reprimanding her for bringing defamation cases against opposition leaders in her home state of Tamil Nadu.
Judges said that "Tamil Nadu is the only state which misuses state machinery to fight defamation cases."
The court was informed by the state government that more than 200 defamation cases have been filed by it in the last five years. 55 cases are against the media, 85 involve Ms Jayalalithaa's main rival, the DMK.
Ms Jayalalithaa, 68, has been brought to court by opposition leader, Vijayakanth, a former actor who is known as "Captain."
