Yesterday, 20 soldiers got killed in Manipur and at least 11 soldiers got wounded due to an attack by a Manipuri tribal militant group. The news was extremely depressing and people shared their condolences. Even Hrithik Roshan shared his condolences on Twitter, but did a major faux pas in expressing so.
A few days back he trended on Twitter for posting about ‘The Dress’ after 3 months. Today, the twitterati is trolling him for this tweet:
My heartfelt condolences to d families of the 20 jawans killed in a mindless ambush by Manipur tribals. https://t.co/A91V4VnA1G salute.

He misunderstood the Manipuri tribal militant group for Manipuri tribals. Like always, people started taking a dig at him:
.@iHrithik Not by Manipuri tribals.By militant group.No wonder ppl think actors r only a pretty face-body w/o brains https://t.co/Cc3FjZxeE6 — Santoesha Bissesar (@MsSantoesha) June 4, 2015
@iHrithik: “Manipuri tribals” equivalent to terrorists? Should ‘t you be using the term “Manipuri terrorists”, or “terrorists in Manipur”?

There were some who were genuinely concerned for what must have happened.
Who manages Hrithik’s twitter? He is being trashed for his Manipur tweet blunder since yesterday. Tweet hasn’t been deleted/changed.

Whatever must have happened, we don’t know, but Hrithik made a correction –
Correction- unidentified Manipur tribal militant groups .. To be more precise. — Hrithik Roshan (@iHrithik) June 4, 2015
