The district BJP had organised a march from Kote Anjaneyaswamy Temple (located outside the Mysuru palace) to the Deputy Commissioner's office n protest against the State government's decision to celebrate Tipu Jayanti.

When the protesters began to raise provocative slogans, police stepped into action and detained the several BJP workers. Mysuru-Kodagu MP Pratap Simha and Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje were also taken into custody. However, all of them were released later.

Earlier, addressing the gathering, Ms. Karandlaje came down heavily on the State government for celebrating the birth anniversary of Tipu Sultan despite the stiff opposition from the public. Tipu was “anti-Hindu” and had destroyed temples, Ms. Karandlaje said, adding that he had waged a war against the British to save his throne.

Alleging that RSS workers were being killed, she said that the government had failed to act against the culprits. Mr. Pratap Simha said the government was not bothered about protecting RSS workers, who had come under attack, but was more keen on celebrating Tipu Jayanti.

When the BJP leaders tried to take out the march, the police prevented them, leading to a tense situation.

Later, the police took the BJP leaders into custody and released them soon thereafter.

The BJP leaders later reached the DC's office and submitted a memorandum.

Being a PRACTISING muslim we do not celabrate birthday not even our Prophet (PBUH) since its not the teaching of our Prophet (PBUH) Only for political gain like Shadi Bhagya (In Islam Girl does not need to spend anything on her marraige rather bridegroom in the form of MEHAR and exp of VALEENA... Unfortunatly its other way round now)

People hwo support Tippu jayanthi- does not get any benefit
People who are against - does not get any benefit

TWO POLITICAL PARTY GET FULL BENEFIT OUT OF THIS....

Vote politics,,preparation for next election

Shobakka
Instead of this drama use your time for the development of Udupi and chikkamangalore. After becoming MP you did zero work except protesting for unwanted things. It's not your mistake it's mistake of bhakts who voted you and as a result we got useless and waste MP like shoba. I am requesting with all blind bhakts that choose the person who is interested in the development of the country not the one who always fights for religion.

Tippu Zindabad!
