The Shillong Times in One More Legal Difficulty for Prof. Bhogtoram Mawroh's Article

To,
Shri Bhogtoram Mawroh,
Faculty of the Geography Department, NEH
With reference to your article MARCHING WITH THE KHAKI: A FIGHT BACK BY A DISAPPEARING PEOPLE
 Here I want to let you know that I have personally initiated criminal defamation court suit against Editor Shillong Times and Fr. Albert for his baseless article in the newspaper in response to RSS route march in Shillong.
With this email I want to ask you whether you have any evidences from competent judicial, legal or government authority to prove your quotes in your aforesaid article and especially lines mentioned below.
"It is also disturbing because RSS has been associated with various acts of violence especially against the minorities. Its ideology of an exclusive Hindu nation which does not recognize other belief systems has always been a threat to the idea of a secular and plural India. This is the group that reveres Mahatma Gandhi’s killer as a hero!"
If you have substantial evidences to prove your allegations against RSS, kindly tender it to me within 15 days from today. In case, you fails to do so, I will unilaterally initiate another punitive criminal defamation suit against YOU for spreading rumors and hate as well as intentional criminal defamation of a social group and personalities to punish YOU. I will make The Shillong Times Editor and Owner co-party in the case.
I will not be responsible for financial, personal or any other damage caused to you due to this court suit.

Regards,
Vinay Joshi
