Sir/Madam,
Under the instructions and on behalf of my client Gaurav
Sawant, Executive Editor, India Today TV, Noida, I am
issuing this notice to you as follows:
1. An Article titled as ‘For the Record’, published on
1.11.2018, in the magazine ‘The Caravan’, of which No.
1 of you is the Editor-in-Chief, Publisher and Printer,
has been brought to my notice, which article contains
absolutely defamatory and libellous content against my
client. It is stated that the said article has been authored
by No. 2 of you, as allegedly told to her by No. 3 of you,
who claims the content to be her story.
2. At the outset my client states and vehemently denies
each and every allegation, claim, averment as false,
baseless, malicious, frivolous and totally being
fabrication and figment of imagination of No 3 of you,
without any cogent proof or evidence. No 1 and 2 have
not only thrown caution to winds but have explicitly
used a credible platform to further vested and nefarious
interest without verifying the contents of allegations ando
confronting my client with any evidence of the
allegations.
. My client is shocked and surprised to read the said
article as the contents of the same to the extent they
relate to my client are absolutely false and baseless and
amounts to grossly irresponsible Journalism.
- My client is serving as an Executive Editor, India Today
TV. He has been an award winning journalist for the
Past 24 years and has risked his life and limb, covering
conflict in Kargil, Sierra Leone, Libya, Egypt and counter
terror operation both in J&K and North-East. He is also
the author of ‘Dateline Kargil’, which is a Nine-Week
account from the battle front and ‘Vera
Gatha Children’s Comics’ on Param Vir Chakra
Awardees. He has written the said series for the National
Book Trust, MHRD, free of cost and all the proceeds
from the comics are used for the welfare of Jawans in
the Indian Army. My client presently is also an
Executive Editor, Strategic Affairs, TV Today Network.
His hardwork and toil of the past more than 24 years
has brought him immense good will and an impeccable
reputation of a credible Journalist.
