Rajeev Kumar Serves Defamation Notice to Union Minister Sukanta Majumdar Over Viral Reel

Majumdar signals readiness to contest the claim in court.

Overview

  • The former West Bengal DGP’s notice demands immediate removal of the social-media reel from all platforms and an unconditional public apology within seven days.
  • The notice says the reel portrays Majumdar accusing Kumar of corruption and linking him to the coal scam and cattle smuggling.
  • It quotes a line it labels defamatory—“Didi tera DG Deewana, haye Ram, ED ko dale dana”—as evidence of intent to tarnish Kumar’s reputation.
  • Kumar contends the statements caused grave humiliation, mental agony, loss of honour, and irreversible harm to his professional standing.
  • Responding publicly, Majumdar invoked past CBI action and court observations about Kumar, declared he is ready for a legal fight, and BJP sources said he has already sent a legal reply.
