 Applying Kirchoff's law in mesh $ABCDA$

$ - 10(i - {i_1}) - 10{i_2} + 20{i_1} = 0$

$\Rightarrow $ $\,3{i_1} - {i_2} = i$ ....... $(i)$ and in mesh $BEFCB$

$ - \,20\,(i - {i_1} - {i_2}) + \,10\,({i_1} + {i_2}) + 10{i_2} = 0$

$\Rightarrow $  $3{i_1} + 4{i_2} = 2i$ ...... $(ii)$

From equation $(i)$ and $(ii)$

${i_1} = \frac{{2i}}{5},\,{i_2} = \frac{i}{5}$ $\Rightarrow $ ${i_{AD}} = \frac{{2i}}{5}$
