A Delhi Court has issued summons to YouTuber Dhruv Rathee in a defamation suit filed by BJP spokesperson Suresh Karamshi Nakhua, who seeks Rs. 20 lakhs damages from Rathee for “defamation caused to him on cyber space.”

The summons was issued by District Judge Gunjan Gupta of the Saket Court on July 19.

The court also issued a notice regarding Nakhua's request for interim relief, scheduling the next hearing for August 6.

Judge Gupta ordered, "Issue summons of the suit and notice of the application under Order 39, Rule 1 and 2 CPC to the defendants, using all available modes including PF & RC/Speed Post/Approved Courier and electronic mode for August 6, 2024. The process should also be delivered personally, as requested."

Advocates Raghav Awasthi and Mukesh Sharma represented Nakhua. 

On July 7, 2024, Rathee posted a video titled “My Reply to Godi Youtubers | Elvish Yadav | Dhruv Rathee” on his YouTube channel. Nakhua, spokesperson for the BJP's Mumbai unit, alleges that Rathee's video inaccurately labeled him as part of “violent and abusive trolls,” which Nakhua argues is baseless and damaging to his reputation.
