Congress is out to rewrite old history and the responsibilty lies on Diggy. Now very soon a new history will be taught in Schools.. Nehru, Gandhi, Indiraji, Rajivji, Rahulji, Soniaji, Osamaji etc will be the heroes in the fight for Independence. People like Subhash Bose, LB Shastri, Patel, Savarkar, Bhagat Singh etyc will be liabilities...Jai ho..
Long before Savarkar, Mohamed Iqbal, Nawab Habbibulah of Dakha, have mentioned about partitioning British India to have a separate country under British rule but only for the Muslims.
Who first introduced the idea is not important, as Savarkar has accepted Muslims who are patriotic as Muslim Hindus, a very strange idea.
Savarkar was not talking about separating India on the basis of religion but on the basis of loyalty.
Given that Savarkar was a Secularist, not a Hindu as such. HINTUDVA is very different from Hinduism.
Jinnah, Iqbal wanted to divide India according to religion; Savarkar accoring to loyalty. These are different concepts.
This must be true since he heard this from his mother. Savarkar used to visit her while her husband was away. he stopped visiting once she increased her rate.
