Mdivani in his youth been better looked after by his father, he would have studied his languages instead of chasing after the chambermaids, would not have needed a translator, and would not have taken the father of Kouska to the waters.
Mdivani's father was not disposed to keep an eye on the progress of his son's education when the latter was supposed to be studying languages, because this son, by his looks, reminded him of a certain dignitary of the church, concerning whom Mr.
Mdivani was born in the year 1861, his mother in 1832, and the Gypsy grandmother in 1798.

 The Georgian affair of 1922 - policy failure, personality clash or power struggle? - ©Welcome2Sakartvelo
Budu Mdivani was to prove a troublesome if inconsistent defender of Georgian national sentiment, whose ambiguous stance combined with a certain naivete when it came to political debate laid him wide open to the charge of 'nationalist deviance' which was later to be thrown at him (11).
Anyway, having spoken to Makharadze, Mdivani and Ordzhonikidze, he was confident that any aberrations on Ordzhonikidze's part were isolated errors.(102) For Trotsky, the Georgian affair was clearly not such a major issue, certainly not important enough for him to pit himself against the rest of the Politburo.
Mdivani and company were now powerless, but Ordzhonikidze also appears to have moderated his behaviour.

 To P. G. Mdivavi, F. Y. Makharadze and Others
After the October (1922) Plenum of the R.C.P.(B.) Central Committee, there was a sharpening of the conflict between the Transcaucasian Territorial Committee of the R.C.P.(B.) and the Mdivani group (see Note 723).
Having met with resistance from the Georgian Communists, the Central Committee of the Communist Party (Bolsheviks) of Georgia, on which the Mdivani group had a majority, resigned on October 22 on the plea of its differences with the Transcaucasian Territorial Committee.
The Territorial Committee was conducting a fundamentally correct line, working to bring together the Transcaucasian Republics into the Transcaucasian Federation, and resolutely supporting the idea of uniting all the Soviet Republics into a single state.

Although Makharadze, Okujava and Toroshelidze still continued to oppose pressure by Orjonikidze-Stalin duet, but their position was already much weaker, especially after Trotsky’s failure (one to six) at the Politburo in Moscow to recall Orjonikidze from Baku and decentralise the Transcaucasian Republic.
His compatriots and old comrades/rivals Mdivani, Toroshelidze, Okujava, Kavtaradze and some others got accused by Beria at the 10th Congress of GCP held in May 1937 in Tbilisi to have created the "Trotskyist Centre for Espionage, Sabotage and Terrorism".

The problem which particularly troubled Lenin at that time was the situation in Georgia, where a struggle was in progress between a group of old Georgian Bolsheviks led by Budu Mdivani, F. Makharadze and others, on the one hand, and Stalin, whose policy was being pushed by Sergo Ordzhonikidze, on the other.
The most influential leader of this majority (after the murder of Kirov and the poisoning of Kuibyshev) was Ordzhonikidze, who died during the conferences preceding the official opening of the Central Committee plenum (February 23, 1937).
At this plenum, Stalin smashed the resistance of the majority, and it was decided to put Bukharin, Rykov and others on trial in Moscow and Budu Mdivani and others in Tiflis.
