The Indore police have registered a case against Congress leader Digvijaya Singh for allegedly sharing a controversial post on former RSS chief MS Golwalkar on social media, PTI reported.
In his complaint, a RSS worker has alleged that Singh had shared a controversial poster on Facebook bearing the name and picture of Guruji to incite people by creating conflict among Dalits, backward classes, Muslims and Hindus.
According to the FIR, Singh's Facebook post on Golwalkar allegedly hurt the religious beliefs of Sangh workers and the entire Hindu community.
Singh on Saturday tweeted a picture of a page carrying several controversial comments quoted to the former RSS head, known as Guruji among his admirers.
Golwalkar was quoted as saying that he would rather live under the British rule than have equal rights given to Dalits, backwards and Muslims.
Following a complaint filed by local lawyer and RSS worker Rajesh Joshi, the FIR was registered on Saturday night against Singh under Indian Penal Code sections 153-A (promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence), 469 (forgery for purpose of harming reputation), 500 (defamation) and 505 (statements conducing to public mischief), said the official from Tukoganj police station.
