BHOPAL,JULY 9: An FIR was lodged against former Madhya Pradesh chief minister and Congress MP Digvijaya Singh at Indore’s Tukoganj police station on Saturday late night, for allegedly making an objectionable social media post about former RSS chief MS Golwalkar earlier in the day.

The FIR was lodged under IPC Sections 153-A, 469, 500 and 505, on the complaint by Indore-based MP High Court advocate Rajesh Joshi.

In the complaint, the advocate had alleged that the post made from the official social media ID of the former MP CM, attributed false comments to the second RSS chief, suggesting that Golwalkar was against equal rights to Dalits, backwards and Muslims.

 “By attributing such false comments to the former RSS chief, the ex-CM has deliberately tried to arouse hate for RSS among Dalits, Muslims and backwards and also provoke conflict and enmity between different sections,” the complainant alleged in the complaint.

Earlier in the day, Singh had tweeted and posted on Facebook, a picture of a page carrying several controversial comments quoted to the former RSS chief.

In the post, the second RSS chief was quoted as saying that he would rather live under British rule than have equal rights given to Dalits, backwards and Muslims. Some other controversial comments were also attributed to him.

Reacting to Singh’s post, the RSS too had on Saturday, accused the former Madhya Pradesh chief minister of posting a “photoshopped” image. “It is baseless and is meant to cause social disharmony,” senior RSS functionary Sunil Ambekar had said.
