Vinayak Damodar Savarkar famously known as Swatantryaveer Savarkar is venerated in the greater part of Maharashtra in upper standing families. Since youth I have perused, and heard the extraordinary and chivalrous anecdotes about him for the most part by older folks, instructors, companions and even today nearly by everyone (it includes Whats-app and Facebook university too). Those accounts incorporate how progressive and visionary individual he was, and the amount he and his family yielded for the country and afterward how the things turned out badly after freedom and how the then leaders like Nehru, Gandhi, and so on ruined everything. After May 2014, when NDA Government lead by Bharatiya Janata Party(BJP) came into power, by and by there were discussions of giving Bharat Ratna to Savarkar. This interest primarily originated from ShivSena. Along these lines, interest emerge in my brain to perceive what I have heard so far about this man is undeniable realities or simply one more propaganda.So, when I started reading some articles from other sources like online articles, magazines and I realized that the truth is far from what I have been known since so long years.Some facts are as below:We all know Savarkar was sent to Cellular Jail in Andaman. But what is NOT told to us is Vinayak Damodar Savarkar sent 6 mercy letters and 2 letters by his family to British Government. And the first mercy letter was written by him in the second month(57 days) after he reached to Andaman, and not after completion of his work which he took in his hands after he reached cellular jail, as we have been told.As per records of cellular jail of Andaman, there were 8100 prisoners who were hanged in the jail. And as per the records just 3 prisoners, who got released from the jail by writing mercy petitions. The two among them were Savarkar brothers. And interesting part is the Andaman Airport is named after Veer Savarkar. What an irony?It is also told to us that during his stay in Andaman jail, he was given punishment to produce 30 pounds of oil every day. But according to the ticket history of cellular jail in Andaman, Savarkar hasn’t actually worked on oil mill for a single day. For many months, he worked in the jail’s rope-making unit, the lightest work a prisoner could hope for in cellular jail.It is known that Savarkar got double life-imprisonment in case of murder of Jackson. When Savarkar was brought in the Bombay Court, what he told in front of the court is I have sent the 20 pistols to my brother in India for his self defense. He gave few of them to someone, one of which was used in the murder of Jackson. So, instead considering me as a responsible person in this case, you should do inquiry of my brother. (Do NOT believe in what he has written in his book).These pistols and the manuscript of a book written by Savarkar, were brought in India from England by Sikandar Hayat Khan(He later became Governor of Punjab) and handed over it to Savarkar’s brother. But, Savarkar later never showed any gratitude by writing a single line towards Sikandar Hayat Khan. His book wouldn’t have got published, become so popular and Savarkar followers feel so proud for it, if Sikandar Hayat Khan failed to bring its manuscript.When Savarkar was staying in Ratnagiri (after releasing from Andaman), he used to get regular pension from British Government. There is a record available that shows he has sent a letter to Ratnagiri District Collector and requesting for increase in the pension amount, as the amount of pension which he gets in the form of pension was insufficient for him. The reply from the Ratnagiri District Collector is eye opener in many cases, because his reply was “You are getting enough money as pension along with some bags of money, and British Government knows that money is used for money lending. I am sending you a show cause letter to explain, why shouldn’t your pension be stopped.”There was a book written on Savarkar titled “The Life of Swatantra Veer Savarkar” by Chitragupta, which had been praised Savarkar a lot. A few years later, it was discovered that the author Chitragupta was none other than Savarkar himself.Another myth is Savarkar inspired Subhash Chandra Bose to form Indian National Army to fight against British rule, but THE HINDU MAHASABHA launched ‘military recruitment boards’ across the country to help ‘Hindus’ join the British army. There are proofs that show that Savarkar was issuing circulars for the militarization of Hindus. “This was clearly to help the British against the advances of Subhash Chandra Bose’s Indian National Army. Savarkar publicly extorted Indians to join British Army to fight and oppose invading INA led by Subash Chandra Bose.When Constituent Assembly adopted the tricolor as the national flag on July 29, 1947, but Savarkar rejected it saying: “It can never be recognized as the national flag of our Hindustan...the authoritative flag of Hindusthan, can be no other than the Bhagva (saffron flag).We have been told that Savarkar’s dream was “Akhand Bharat”(United India), But the reality is Savarkar wanted Kashmir and Jammu as different countries. Savarkar congratulated the King of Travankor for declaring themselves as a separate Hindu nation. Travankor state appointed a commissioner in Pakistan, and Savarkar welcomed it too. He wanted Junagadh as separate country. He wanted so many nations inside India and still we praise him for his work for “Akhand Bharat”. And still these people(the Hindu right wing organizations) blame Pt. Nehru and Mahatma Gandhi for India Pakistan partitions.After BJP lead NDA Govt came into power in central govt of India in May 2014,a new campaign was started in India which was called as “Ghar Wapasi”. In this concept, Muslims, Christians, and other minorities are converted into Hindu by conducting some rituals. Sometimes it also happens forcefully. If you look back into history and search for similar incident, you can find that Savarkar has conducted such rituals in the name of “Shuddhi” in which he will make some yagya and in that Muslims, Christians, and other people from backward class were brought back into Hindu religion and they were declared as pure(shuddha). Now see here another contradictory about Savarkar. Savarkar, himself and his followers keep on calling him as atheist, a rationalist and a man with scientific temperament, but how an atheist, a rationalist and a man with scientific temperament can conduct such rituals and make people pure. This also means he believes that few people are impure by birth and by doing such ritual they can be made pure.Many Savarkar followers called him as a social reformer and they give example that he started a temple in his home town i.e. Ratnagiri. The temple was called as Patit Pawan Mandir, which was only for scheduled caste people( He did NOT open a temple of upper caste people for scheduled caste people). Now the Patit Pawan Mandir means people who are from scheduled caste come to that temple are impure and performing rituals in that temple, they will get purified.One of the darkest spot on Savarkar's whole life came in 1948, when he was arrested as one of the accused in the conspiracy to kill Gandhiji and but was later acquitted for lack of corroborative evidence. On February 27, 1948, Vallabhbhai Patel, India’s first home minister, wrote to Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru: “It was a fanatical wing of the Hindu Mahasabha directly under Savarkar that [hatched] the conspiracy [to kill Gandhi] and saw it through.” On March 22, 1965, a commission of inquiry was set up, with former Supreme Court judge J.L. Kapur as its chairman, to investigate the conspiracy in Gandhi’s assassination. The commission found that Nathuram Godse was a “frequent visitor of V. D. Savarkar” and that “people who were subsequently involved in the murder of Mahatma Gandhi were all congregating sometime or the other at Savarkar Sadan and sometimes had long interviews with Savarkar”. Kapur’s findings established that Savarkar was indeed involved in the conspiracy to kill Gandhi. Gajanan Vishnu Damle, Savarkar’s private secretary, and Appa Kasar, his bodyguard, deposed before the commission and accepted their knowledge of Savarkar’s involvement in the conspiracy to kill Gandhi. In its report, which came out in 1969, the commission concluded: “All these facts taken together were destructive of any theory other than the conspiracy to murder by Savarkar and his group.” The report, however, came too late. Savarkar died on February 26, 1966.It is said that Savarkar alongside different detainees in the prison built up a code language by making commotion of the hand-bluffs. It is likewise informed that one day all of a sudden the majority of the detainees went on appetite strike(The message was spread among all detainees by a similar technique by utilizing the code language of commotion of hand-bluffs). Indeed, even all staff of Cellular Jail was shocked to know why all detainee went on craving strike at a similar date and time. The improvement of this code language was an interesting and additional customary thought. Niranjan Takle contemplated around 8 to 9 self-portrayals of prisoners who went with Savakar amid his days in Andaman. In any case, to his incredible shock, not a solitary one has referenced about this code language story. How might it be conceivable? It was such a splendid thought and how nobody has referenced about this in their auto biography(Even Savarkar's brother who was in the correctional facility alongside him hasn't referenced about it). On the contrary, many prisoners has mentioned that the Savarkar brothers never participated in the hunger strike along with others, and always tried to be in the good books of the Jailers.Prof. Yashpal has referenced in his autobiography() how Savarkar would not support him and his association to battle against British rule. After Bhagat Singh, and others got captured their organization got debilitated. They critically required some financial help. In this way, Chandrasekhar Azad quickly sent Prof Yashpal to meet Savarkar in Pune and look for some money related help. Prof Yashpal writes in his book he went to Savarkar's residence in Pune and there he had to wait for 2.5 hours as Savarkar was occupied in God adore. When he turned out Prof Yashpal let him know Chandrashekhar Azad's message, on which Savarkar thought for quite a while and after that told Prof Yashpal that he can't help their association in battling against British rule, however on the off chance that they guarantee him he will give them some foreign made guns to kill Mohd Ali Jinnah. Chandrasekhar Azad got very upset of listening what occurred in Pune at Savarkar's residence and he said "We are revolutionaries and the knave supposes we are supari killers".Savarkar justified rape as a legitimate political tool. This he did by re-configuring the idea of “Hindu virtue” in his book Six Glorious Epochs of Indian History, which he wrote in Marathi a few years before his death in 1966.Apart from all these things one must accept that he was a good orator. He could influence the masses with his speeches. Also he was a very good writer and poet. His contribution to the Marathi language by suggesting Marathi words for certain English words like photography, mayor, parliament, telephone, etc.So, coming to conclusion, he was certainly started to work as revolutionary and promoted Hindu Muslim unity at the beginning. But after seeing the tough life ahead of revolutionaries, he decided to go with British and betrayed his motherland. Most of stories spread about his are to far from the facts and this post is just an attempt to put a light on the other side of Savarkar’s life. Senior journalist Niranjan Takle has described him in a perfect phrase “A lamb, lionised.”

The people of Hunza have for a long time been the topic of such discussions. In the late 19th century, explorers from Europe began to travel through the Subcontinent and document their experiences and stories. One of the most fascinating was that of the Hunza people. These were almost mythical people that were descended from Alexander the Great himself. They were stronger, faster, intelligent and nobler than regular people. Their lifespans exceeded that of any normal human with the elders of the Hunza commonly being somewhere between 120–200 years of age. 150 years old that were still sexually active and 60–70 years old women who were as fertile as a 20 year old from another land. They also had an immunity to most diseases and cancers. In summary, the stories portrayed them to be almost a higher level of humanity. If you read the early stories, one would think of them as the Númenóreans from the tales of Tolkien.Some elderly Hunza peopleThe truth is that almost all of these stories were myths and great exaggerations. This includes the one about their longer than normal life spans. There has not been a single documented case from Hunza of a person living for 120 years. These myths were propagated by the Mirs and the locals themselves . Most travelers in the early and middle 20th century did not stay among the Hazara for a long period to actually gather enough data to declare them truly free of disease or document their unnaturally long lives. Rather they would travel through the region and listen to the stories by the locals. Their meeting with the Mir would further cement these myths into the minds of these travelers. Soon after they would leave the region and continue upon their travel. When writing about the region within their stories, most of the information would be from the account of the people of Hunza or the Mir. Instead of any real documented evidence.Hunza peopleAs I said before, most of what you hear about the Hunza people are great over exaggerations and myths. This is especially true about their unnaturally long lifespans. Despite the evidence contradicting these myths, many advocates of living a healthy and vegetarian lifestyle continue to use the myth of the Hazara longevity as an example to prove a point. That by eating healthy and avoiding GMO foods, you too could live to over a hundred years."They have no money, no poverty, no disease, no police and no jails."-Dr. Allen E. Banik and Renee Taylor in their book, Hunza LandDr. John Clark stayed among the people of Hunza for about twenty months. In this time period he would realized just how far the myths told about the people were from the reality of the situation. One his first journey through the region, he came to believe many of the myths as well. It was only after a prolonged stay that he saw through the illusions and myths."I wish also to express my regrets to those travelers whose impressions have been contradicted by my experience. On my first trip through Hunza, I acquired almost all the misconceptions they did: The Healthy Hunzas, the Democratic Court, The Land Where There Are No Poor, and the rest—and only long-continued living in Hunza revealed the actual situations"-Dr. John Clark in his book, Hunza - Lost Kingdom of the HimalayasDuring this time period Dr. Clark saw many of the local Hunza people and treated many sick as patients. He quickly realized just how far the reality was from the myths of a natural resistance against diseases. Every village he went to had many sick people desperate to be treated by the doctor. The people of Hunza were ridden with disease and many died from such diseases due to a general lack of modern medicine and poverty. Some of the diseases that Dr. Clark documents seeing in the Hunza people are dysentery, ringworm infestations, impetigo, cataracts, eye infections, tuberculosis, scurvy, malaria, ascariasis, leucoderma, staphylococcus infections, dental caries, soft teeth, goitre, bronchitis, sinusitis, chapped and bleeding hands, beriberi, influenza, pneumonia, other infections and rheumatic knees of sub-clinical rickets.Not only that but Dr. Clark also documents the high mortality rate in the region by asking many of the boys that he treated about the number of family members who were dead and the manner of death.Another myth that he proved false was that the babies in the Hunza region rarely died and were naturally tougher. This was an idea that the Mir propagated to every foreign visitor in the region. However after a long stay and documenting such deaths, he believed that the mortality among the infants and babies was close to thirty percent. That means that every third child that was born died within about the first few years of their life.A medical study performed in 1986 proved this myth as false. The life expectancy was 53 years for men and 52 for women, although with a relatively high standard deviation. That is less than half of what the stories claim it to have been. Compare this to the Pakistani average of 58 in the same year. However it is probably likely that the life expectancy of the Hunza people in the earlier years of the century may have been at a similar level. At the time near the independence of Pakistan, the average life expectancy in Pakistan was in the mid 40s. A slightly higher average life expectancy of the Hunza people at this time may have also been responsible for the propagation of this myth."As someone who has lived and worked in the Hunza and Baltistan region of northern Pakistan for a decade, it is important to first debunk the myth that the Burushushki, Wakhi and Shina people of the Hunza region are blessed with the lives of Methusula. This was actually a myth which gained momentum when it was written up by Dr. Alexander Leaf, in the January 1973 issue of National Geographic magazine. There is absolutely no scientific validity to his claim. People of the Hunza suffer from malnutrition and nutrition deficiencies just as much as any other remote mountain region in SE Asia. Although the predominantly Ismaeli faith (branch of Shi-ite muslims) are progressive and relatively better off than most of their neighbours in nearby regions, they will all tell any visitor, that their life expectancy is around 50 - 60 years, just like any other region of northern Pakistan."-From a more recent observerSome of the elders seem to blame the modern times for the shortening of the lifespan in the region. It seems to me that these people are like any of the older generations in many other places. The have nostalgic feelings about the past and do not have much faith in scientific evidence and the wonders of modern medicine. Instead many choose to blame the modern times for the worsening of health in the public and shortening of lifespans, despite all evidence pointing in the opposite direction. The best example of this can be seen by looking at Pakistan’s average life expectancy at the time of independence which was around 45 and now which is over 65. That is an increase by 20 years. Yet many people of the older generations persist upon the idea that people were more healthy in their times.Here is another interaction between a foreign traveler who also discovered just how far the myth was from the truth.The people of Hunza were not delighted, though. Virtually everyone I interviewed believed that the intrusion of modern civilization was shortening lives. People blamed their current health problems on chemicals in imported fruit and germs in imported grain, and they insisted that the valley had once really been Shangri-La.An elderly woman named Bibi Khumari told me: ''The people today are like pencils. We were like tree trunks. The babies were so healthy in the old days.''''How many babies did you have?'' I asked.''Sixteen. But the first 13 died.''''Thirteen died? But you said in those days the babies were so healthy.''''I had a curse from the fairies,'' she said. That was why my children were dying. Otherwise the babies were healthy.'' She paused, then added absent-mindedly, ''Nowadays there is not as much fairy sickness.''-John Tierney’s article The Optimists Are Right for the New York TimesThe average life expectancy of the Hunza people is about the same as the Pakistani average. Historically when the average life expectancy in the Subcontinent was in the 40s, the Hunza probably had a slightly higher one (early 50s). This may have resulted in them being seen as more healthier and stronger. Generally speaking it seems more to me as if the harsh natural conditions killed the weak, allowing only the stronger to reach adulthood. Giving the appearance of a population that was stronger and healthy than people from other regions.Some positive healthy factors that may have contributed to this may have been:Babies were generally breastfed for a few year. Those that could not and the weaker babies usually died.Lack of obesity due to a low caloric intake. No sugar or honey available.Life required hard work by everyone. Both the upper and lower classes.Geographical isolation and lack of transmitting vectors at such high altitudes prevented the spread of communicable diseases to the region.The last myth that I want to focus on is the myth of low-cancer rates among the Hunza people due to their diet. According to this theory these people have negligible to no cancer incidence due to the use of the kernels of apricots which is known to contain Amygdalin, also known as Vitamin B17. The myth of the Hunza people’s longevity and immunity to carcinomas is propagated by many homeopathic “doctors” and quacks.The truth is far more complicated. It is true that the kernels of apricots contain Amygdalin. The first lie is that Amygdalin is not really a vitamin. Secondly, there is no real evidence that the people of Hunza have low incidence of cancers due to the lack of proper investigation by scientific methods. Thirdly, Amygdalin is not going to treat or prevent cancers. Instead it is banned by the FDA since the 1980s because it can cause cyanide poisoning and hepatotoxicity. There is no evidence that the human body needs Amygdalin. Investigations and research have not found any conclusive evidence that it even helps against carcinomas.ConclusionSince the late 19th century, foreign travelers who have passed through the region talk of the long, disease-free lives of the Hunza people. However none of these people stayed in the region for a long enough time. Nor did they have much real interaction with the local Hunza people. They saw only what the Mir of Hunza wanted them to see. That is a heaven on earth. One that is populated only by superhumans.This myth was further propagated by many before finally being proven false by Dr. John Clark in the middle of the 20th century. His book that he wrote about the region and it’s people clearly show that the Hunza people neither had extraordinarily long lives. Nor were they very healthy or free from diseases. On the contrary, malnutrition was quite common.In summary, the people of Hunza have a life expectancy that is about the same as the average in Pakistan, with a high standard deviation. There has not been a single documented case of a 120 year old with the strength of a 20 year old. There is no evidence to point that Hunza was ever a place where centurions lived in large numbers.There is no doubt that Hunza is one of the most beautiful places on earth and that the people of Hunza are extremely hospitable and kind. But let’s not fall for myths that are clearly untrue. Lets not abandon modern medicine for pseudoscience.
