Incorrect claims about Swami's early life

On the 20th of October 2015 Madhusudan Naidu chose to make some sensational claims during a talk he gave about Avatar Declaration day. These claims differ widely to Sathya Sai Baba's own statements, yet Madhusudan claims that these statements come from Sathya Sai Baba's subtle form.

Madhusudan spoke about Sri Sathya Sai Baba's childhood in Uravakonda:

As long as we continue to have the sense of difference between myself and others definitely we will be in the darkness of ignorance. Only when we experience the oneness of all creation that is the time we get rid of all sorrows, attachments and anguish. We have been listening to very good expositions to the Krishna leelas. It is not only the Krishna leelas, those days many Sai leelas happened also. When I was 14 years old, on the invitation of the municipal commissioner, I went to Hampe.

This is different to the facts stated both by Swami and in His official biography. As noted by Professor Kasturi in Sathya Sivam Sundaram Vol 1:

"It was at this time that a group of townsmen from Hospet (a town in Karnataka) consisting of the Deputy Inspector of Schools, some Municipal Councillors and merchants, approached Seshama Raju with an invitation to Bhagawan to visit their town".

Note that there was no mention of the municipal commissioner that Madhusudan claimed invited him? Swami also mentioned in a discourse that it was the Corporation Commissioner of Bellary, not the municipal commissioner, who hosted them.

It happened when I was at Uravakonda. The Corporation Commissioner of Bellary had a dream in which he was directed to go to a particular house in Uravakonda and bring Sathyam to Bellary… The Commissioner and his wife played host to us for three days. They took us to the Virupaksha temple in the nearby Hampi Kshetra.

If Madhusudan is simply repeating Swami's words, why do his words not match what Swami said while in the body?
Madhusudan then basically repeats, with some embellishment, what Swami said in His discourse on 20 October 2002 about Swami accepting a collar pin and then losing it, triggering His declaration of Avatarhood.

Because she went on praying even Seshama Raju was angry. He spoke to me harshly, "Such a big commissioner is telling you and you are not listening to him." As they all put pressure on me I accepted. I came back with the coloured pin, on my shirt collar, to Uravakonda. As I was going from home to school it happened that the pin fell somewhere. I was not sad that I lost the pin. Keeping that pin from the commissioner was a big job. I really didn't care for it. I thought the coloured pin was a big burden because the commissioner would come and ask me where it was. But the coloured pin was lost. Illusion was lost. I called everybody and called the commissioner and sat on a rock.

What Madhusudan has stated about the commissioner here is completely inaccurate and not borne out by the facts: the commissioner was from Bellary not Uravakonda and was not present for these events. Swami said that He entered the garden of the local Excise Commissioner, Hanumantha Rao:

I threw away the books and entered the garden of the Excise Commissioner Hanumantha Rao

http://www.sssbpt.info/ssspeaks/volume35/sss35-18.pdf
Madhusudan then claims that it was actually two of Swami's earliest devotees who sang Manasa Bhajare, not Swami Himself:

There were the earliest devotees Hanumantha and Anjaneyulu. All of them prayed to me, "Instead of staying in the garden come to our house." I dont have any relationships, attachments or family. I came for my devotees. On the 20th October 1940 I told this Truth. Hanumantha and Anjaneyulu came and sat at my feet and sang the song Manasa Bhajare Guru Charanam whilst sitting there.

http://www.bhajanmusic.info/sukshma-baba-information/OCTOBER-2015-MUDDENAHALLI-DISCOURSE-ENGLISH
This is completely inaccurate. It was of course Swami who sang Manasa bhajare, not Sri Anjaneyulu and Hanumantha Rao as per Madhusudan's claims. It is hard to believe that Swami would get this detail incorrect.
Madhusudan next gets a very basic early story of Swami wrong. This story concerns Swami sitting on a chair belonging to one of his relatives and the relative berating Him for doing this:

One day I was sitting on the chair of my brother Seshama Raju. He came with a stick and beat me up. He was a school teacher. He was very angry, "I am a school teacher. You are just a small boy. How dare you come and sit on my chair!" Then I told him, "A time will come when you will get a silver chair for me and I will sit in it majestically and you will come and see that." Even that happened!

This is also not correct. It was Subba Raju, Seshama Raju's brother in law who accosted Sathya, not Swami's brother, Seshama Raju:

Two days before His Birthday (in 1946), devotees requested Baba to permit them to unpack the crate containing the silver chair sent for Him earlier, by some Madras devotees. Baba laughed but did not say anything. Just then Subba Raju, the brother-in-law of Seshama Raju came to the Mandir. Baba called him and asked him to open the crate and told us that Subba Raju alone should take out te chair and dust it, before it could be used on the Birthday. We could not understand this strange order, but Subba Raju did so very well.

Shedding tears, Subba Raju explained, "Bhagawan stayed together with us in Kamalapuram, together with Seshama Raju and his wife (my sister) some years ago. He had to bring pots of water from a distant place for our use. One day He sat on a wooden chair and started rocking it back and forth on its two legs. I shouted at Him and asked Him to get out of the chair. Stung to the quick, He said that one day He would sit on a silver chair, which I would wipe and keep clean for His use. His words have come true today".
