So many bravehearts - Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, Sardar Patel, Pandit Nehru, Bhagat Singh, Rajguru all were hanged, revolutionary Savarkarji and all other great fighters." While some people are accusing Javadekar of muddling up his history by saying Bose and Nehru were hanged, there are others who are treating it as a case of the missing comma. Clear from quote that hanging refers to Bhagat Singh and Rajguru. Comma placement indicates Javadekar said Bhagat Singh and Rajguru were hanged, not the rest. In Javadekar's defense, however, it could just be that he meant to refer to all those who were hanged like Bhagat Singh and Rajguru.
