Dhruv Rathee Supports Mukesh Mohan in Defamation Case Linked to Nitin Gadkari YouTuber Dhruv Rathee has voiced support for content creator Mukesh Mohan amid a legal dispute connected to a report involving businesses linked to Union Minister Nitin Gadkari’s family. The controversy began after Mukesh Mohan summarized a February 2026 investigation by The Caravan, which explored alleged links between agro companies associated with Gadkari’s family and a buffalo meat exporter through shared directors and financial connections. Following the video, Nagpur police registered an FIR and reportedly seized Mohan’s phone. Subsequently, CIAN Agro Industries—where Gadkari’s son serves as managing director—filed a ₹50 crore defamation suit against Mohan, the publication, and others. The company has denied any involvement in meat trading. Political leader Prakash Ambedkar and several supporters have criticized the action, calling it an attempt to silence a marginalized voice, while others argue the case underscores the need for accountability in public discourse. The issue has sparked wider debate around free speech, online content, and scrutiny of business and political links in India’s digital space. #DhruvRathee #MukeshMohan #NitinGadkari #IndiaNews #DefamationCase #FreeSpeech #SocialMediaDebate #Politics
