NEW DELHI: Delhi court on Wednesday issued summons to YouTuber Dhruv Rathee after BJP leader Suresh Karamshi Nakhua filed a defamation suit against him for allegedly calling him a “violent and abusive” troll.
Nakhua is seeking Rs 20 lakhs in damages from Rathee for defamation “defamation caused to him on cyber space,” Live Law reported.
This comes a week after Maharashtra nodal cyber police registered case against him for a post on X handle Dhruv Rathee (parody)@dhruvrahtee for allegedly spreading fake news against Lok Sabha speaker OM Birla’s daughter.
“India is the only country where you can clear UPSC without sitting in the examination. But for that, you have to be born as a daughter of Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla. Om Birla’s daughter Anjali Birla cleared UPSC without giving any examination, she is a model by profession. Modi govt is making a mockery of our education system,” the post said.
