The Congress government of Karnataka is celebrating the Bahmani Sultan Utsav with the single-minded motive of appeasing the Muslim electorate, according to BJP State General Secretary Shobha Karandlaje. Consequently, the BJP is opposing the move, she added.

"Bahmani Sultans were anti-Hindu. They are infamous for destroying the Vijayanagar empire and killing Hindu kings. The government has planned a celebration in the name of such people. Such a celebration has never been held before," Karandlaje told the press.

"The celebration is being held in Kalaburagi 'Khila' and 'Hafth Gunj' on March 6. What is the reason to maintain secrecy about the celebration? The intent of the government is to cause unrest in the state. CM Siddaramaiah has set out to destroy the state like the Bahmani kings did. We will not allow this to happen" she remarked.
