"Counting patriots" joke

A bearded Bengali and a sardar got into an argument over which state had produced more freedom fighters - Bengal or Punjab. They decided that for every patriot each named from his state, he would be entitled to pluck out a hair from the other's beard.
The Bengali opened the offensive with Khudi Ram Bose and tweaked a hair from the sardar s beard. The sardar responded with Bhagat Singh and plucked one out of the Bengali's beard. And so it went painfully on, with the Bengali evidently having an endless list of Bengali nationalists up his sleeve.
The sardar came to the end of his list. Then with great gusto he yelled,' Jalianwala Bagh,' and yanked the Bengali's beard off his chin.
