The Indore Police registered a case against Digvijaya Singh for the tweet in question and Madhya Pradesh chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan accused him of "spreading misinformation" and creating social hatred against Golwalker.
In the controversial post shared by Digvijaya Singh, Golwalkar was attributed a quote in which he said he would rather live under British rule than have equal rights given to Dalits, Muslims and the backwards.

violence in Manipur has set the economy back by decades...
Manipur has not only survived but also emerged stronger after numerous internecine clashes. The common factor in most of these clashes seems to be the aggression of the Kukis. Mention may be made here of the Kuki and Naga clash in the 90s. Kuki and Paite clash in 1997. Kuki and Karbi clash in 2009. Kuki and Dimasa clash in 2011, and the ongoing Kuki and Meitei clash of 2023. In the context of Manipur, we see a repetition of history - the aggression of the Kukis in the 1990s and 2023 is directly linked to the military coup in Myanmar in 1988 and the military coup of February 2021. The junta's brutal suppression of resistance displaced mom than a million Myanmar people, and there has been a massive influx of asylum seekers to India. Consequently, them has been a documented exponential growth of Kuki-Chins people from Myanmar. The economic, land, and political pressures leave poor migrants with minimal choices for employment. India's restrictive migration regime provides no protection for refugees and displaced people, leading to poppy cultivation in over 15000 acres of protected fore. in Manipur.
The World Bank projects like the P176733 will help uplift socio-economic conditions through economic impact initiatives, bringing Manipur digitally closer to the rest of the world. The social risk and impact am enormously positive for the World Bank to invest in these regions. The project is highly inclusive, with special attention to women and over 35 diverse tribal groups.

A World Bank-supported project to promote digital skills and entrepreneurship and secure the foundation of digital governance in Manipur, and approved by the World Bank three weeks ago, has now become the bone of contention between Manipuri tribal and non-tribal diaspora groups.
Project , or the Manipur Infotech eNabled Development Project, which was conceptualised in 2022 at a cost of $57.5 million ($46 million to come from the World Bank and rest to be borne by the local government), is to be implemented by Cyber Corporation of Manipur Ltd.
Scheduled to start in the current financial year, when the state is engulfed by violence for nearly three months now, the project has sparked off a row between the Canada-based North American Tribal Association (NAMTA) and the Houston-based Association of Meiteis in the Americas (AMA).
