Kalaburagi: After BJP government in Karnataka cancelled the annual birth anniversary celebrations of the controversial 18th-century ruler of the erstwhile Mysore Kingdom, Tipu Sultan, Tipu Jayanti Virodhi Horata Samithi hailed the government’s decision.
Tipu Jayanti Virodhi Horata Samithi on Tuesday distributed sweets and busted fire-crackers here at Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel circle.
The BJP government in Karnataka on Tuesday cancelled the annual birth anniversary celebrations of the controversial 18th-century ruler of the erstwhile Mysore Kingdom, Tipu Sultan, being organised since 2015.
The new Yediyurappa government’s move through an order comes within three days after it came to power and a day after it won the confidence motion in the state assembly.
The Siddaramaiah led Congress government had started the celebration of Tipu Jayanti as an annual affair on November 10 since 2015 and it was continued by the Congress-JD(S) coalition government headed by H D Kumaraswamy last year despite opposition from BJP and others.
