Factually incorrect, again. False claim.
Hindutva was NOT coined by VD Savarkar in 1923.
It was already used by Panchanan Tarakaratna in 1840
Used by Great Hindi and Bangla scholars like Chandranath Basu and Harishchandra Bharatendu before Savarkar was even born https://t.co/gr7rMiygQX

3) In 1892, Chandranath Basu wrote "HINDUTVA Ba Hindur prakrta itihas"(Hindutva or authentic history of Hindus.
"Hindutva" was already used in the sense of collective consciousness of Hindu society long before Savarkar was bornhttps://t.co/kBarrFmjFI pic.twitter.com/HYx1n3AO30
