Madras High Court stated that an employee has the right to vent.
This issue was brought up when a Tamil Nadu Grama Bank employee, A Lakshminarayanan filed a petition stating that he was facing disciplinary actions based on a ‘WhatsApp Group’ message. He stated that every human has a right to vent and speak his, mind.
Live Law quoted the Madras High Court, "There is something called the right to vent. Every employee or member of an organization will have some issues with the management. It is in the interest of the organization that the complaints find expression. It will have a cathartic effect. If the image of the organization is affected, the management can step in, but not till then,"
