New Delhi: Union Human Resource Development Minister Prakash Javadekar’s remarks on icons of Indian freedom struggle have sparked a controversy. In a video of his comments in Chhindwara (Madhya Pradesh), Javadekar is heard saying, "Subhas Chandra Bose, Sardar Patel, Pt Nehru, Bhagat Singh, Rajguru sabhi phaansi par chadhe (all were hanged)". Clarifying his remarks in a series of tweets, Javadekar said, "I mentioned leaders like Gandhi, Nehru, Subhash Bose… In the next sentence I recounted those who were hanged, jailed and suffered at the hands of the British… There was no confusion in the minds of those who listened. I hope this removes all confusion." — PTI
