Utterly FAKE! Shameless lies!

Veer Savarkar NEVER offered Chandrasekhar Azad money to stop fighting the British.

This article randomly cites "Yashpal's biography" (without actually quoting it) to support its claim.

But Yashpal made no such claim in his biography. Thread (1)
Lie 1: Yashpal wrote that Savarkar offered Azad money. But the offer was NOT to stop fighting British. Nowhere in Yashpal's book is such a thing mentioned. The offer was to assassinate Jinnah.

Lie 2: The Savarkar in question was NOT Veer Savarkar. It was his elder brother.
3) This information is clearly available in article "Yashpal-fighter for freedom" written by Corinne friend (1977), whose screenshot @jantakareporter posted in its article as "source" but selectively CROPPED OUT this information to hide facts

From the horse's mouth: Hindi original of what Yashpal actually wrote.

Notice that Yashpal NOWHERE says Savarkar's brother asked Azad to stop fighting British. Yashpal only says he offered money to assassinate Jinnah BECAUSE Jinnah was creating hurdles in freedom movement.
Lie 3- Did Yashpal write that Azad called Savarkar a British agent? No, this is entirely FAKE. The full episode is narrated by Yashpal in part 2 of his book Sinhavalokan( shorturl.at/bwHYZ see page 112 onwards)

There is NO MENTION of Azad calling Savarkar a British agent
Finally, a word on the "source" Yashpal.

Yashpal was a communist. He made allegations AFTER both Babarao and Azad died. He NEVER uttered a word when they were alive. He isn't a primary source. Nobody else was there to verify. Allegations are NOT corroborated by ANY other source.
Yashpal himself was a communist mole who infiltrated the Bhagat Singh- Azad group. Azad later called him a "Trojan horse".

This was mentioned by Bhagat Singh's aide "Sachchidananda Vatsyayan" in his "Akashvani" (See Page 123-129).

He falsified Azad's statements!
In essence, "Smear Savarkar" campaign works in two stages.

Stage 1: A communist infiltrates the group of freedom fighters. He gets kicked out. After all the actors die, he writes a book with all the lies.

He claims Savarkar's brother offered him money to assassinate Jinnah.
Stage 2: Fake News rags like @janatakareporter use Yashpal's book as "source" & add their own lies on top of it.

1) Savarkar's brother becomes Savarkar.

2)They fabricate FAKE claims like "Savarkar offered Azad money to stop fighting British" which Yashpal did not dare make!
