It is to be noted that Gwalior has been a major centre of the Hindu Mahasabha activities since independence. Interestingly, Godse acquired pistol to kill Mahatma Gandhi from Gwalior itself. The Hindu Mahasabha activists have been worshiping Godse for many years and tried to install his statue in 2017, but the administration seized it and banned its installation.
