<h1>Minister Files Breach of Privilege Notices Against Journalist and Politicians Over Defamation Claims Linked to 2019 Acquittal</h1> Maharashtra Rural Development Minister submitted breach of privilege notices against a Shiv Sena executive editor, an NCP MLA, and a digital journalist for allegedly defaming him. This action followed opposition demands for his resignation over accusations of harassment and sending objectionable photos, which he denies, citing a 2019 court acquittal. The minister claims the revival of these charges damages his reputation and constitutes contempt of court. A senior party member requested the notices be addressed before the budget session ends. The Speaker has forwarded the notices to the House's privilege committee for review.
