Many on social media allegedly pointed out that there is no such factual proof that he inspired these revolutionaries.
There is no historic evidence of the Anushilan Samiti ever coordinating with Savarkar.
Khudiram died in 1908 while Savarkar left India in 1906 for England.
Netaji opposed Hindu Mahasabha throughout his life.
Bhagat Singh was inspired by Kartar Singh Sarabha and Sardar Ajit Singh. https://t.co/2nRLFL0cw8

'Netaji Bose Repeatedly Criticised Savarkar'
18-year-old Khudiram Bose was martyred in 1908. And Savarkar was in London from 1906 to 1911.
Netaji Bose repeatedly criticized Savarkar & Hindu Mahasabha. Savarkar also didn’t utter a word about Bhagat Singh’s hanging while Nehru and Bose tried their best to save him.#Thread https://t.co/av7MkGbXpX

'Kinda Insulting to Punjabis and Bengalis'
Kinda insulting to Punjabis and Bengalis to insinuate that their heroes Bhagat Singh and Subhash Bose were inspired by Her Majesties Humble Servant. https://t.co/iKLxlSjWCQ

'Khudiram was Killed by the British in 1908'
1) Khudiram was killed by the British in 1908. Savarkar's book on 1857 was published only in 1909 !
2) Khudiram Bose was part of Anushilan Samiti which was formed in 1901, when Savarkar was only 18 & an unknown person.
Founded by Pramathanath mitra, 30 yrs older than Savarkar. https://t.co/VY8VZSQHs0

'Sacrilegious'
Naming Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, Bhagat Singh & Khudiram Bose along with Savarkar is sacrilegious. And what to what in this movie? Writing 9 mercy pleas and plotting Mataram Gandhi’s assassination. https://t.co/D9a06ZOruV

'Zero Sense not Backed by Facts'
Subhash Bose? Khudiram Bose? Khudiram died very very young, long before A year before Dhingra's assassination of Wyllie&Savarkars publication of 1857. How was he inspired by Savarkar? Subhash was a critic. Zero sense not backed by facts. https://t.co/qOy5qo5VTB

'Not an Inspiration'
I really don't care about your opinion on Savarkar, but please, he is not an inspiration for Bhagat Singh, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, and Khudiram Bose. With all due respect, please keep his name separate from theirs.🙏 https://t.co/Q4jWGsamS1
