Bengaluru, Jul 29: Karnataka Congress President DK Shivakumar on Tuesday criticised BJP-led Karnataka government for limiting or omitting various topics including chapters on 18th century Mysore ruler Tipu Sultan and his father Hyder Ali.
Speaking to media here at Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) office, Shivakumar said Congress will not allow BJP government in Karnataka to "divert history".
"Tipu Sultan does not belong to one caste or a class. He is part of the history of this country. BJP government has removed chapters related to him for its political advantage. It is their decision whether they celebrate Tipu Sultan Jayanti or not, but he is part of our history.
The President of this country Ramnath Kovind came to the Vidhan Sabha and praised Tipu's patriotism during a joint session," Shivakumar said.
"The BJP government has come to power today. Our history should not change. We will not let these people to covert or dilute history. This is the stand of the Congress party. Our experts will study the pros and cons of this decision," he added.
Shivakumar further said many countries around the world have praised the Constitution, Indian history and expressed their willingness to "adapt it".
"But the BJP is trying to curtail this. We need to educate our children. Our team will also study this and we will not let this happen," he said.
The Karnataka government, in a bid to reduce the syllabus for state board schools by 30 per cent, has limited or omitted various topics including chapters on Mysuru rulers Hyder Ali and Tipu Sultan from the class 7 social science textbook.
The reduction in syllabus comes as schools are closed to prevent the spread of coronavirus in the state, and classes have been moved online.
The Department of Public Instruction of the Karnataka government also limited or removed various other topics from the syllabus of class 6 to 10 as they were repeated or can be alternatively taught.
Earlier, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) had revised the syllabus for the classes IX to XII for the academic session 2020-21 in a "one-time measure" owing to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Hinduism is commonly perceived as a polytheistic religion, Indeed most hindus would attest to this, by professing belief in multiple gods. while some hindus believe in the existence of 3 gods. some believe in thousands of gods and some other in thirty three crore i.e 330 million gods how ever learned hindus who is well versed in scriptures insist that a hindu should believe in one god.
The major difference between hindu and muslim is perception of god is common. Hindu belief in philosophy of pantheism. pantheism considers everything living and non living. to be divine and sacred.the common hindu therefore consider everything as god.he consider sun moon snake monkey etc and even human being as manifestations of god!
Islam on the contrary, exhorts man to consider himself and his surroundings as example divine creation rather then as divinity itself. Muslim therefore believe that everything is God's i.e the word god with an apostrophe 's'. In other words muslim believe that everything belong to god. The tree snake monkey etcin the universe belong to god.
Thus the major difference between the Hindu and Muslim Beliefs is the difference of apostrophe 's'. The Hindu says everything is god. The Muslim says everything is God's. Therefore 'WORSHIP THE CREATOR NOT HIS CREATIONS.
How can a god bite and kill his creations?
Yeh Wrong No. hai, Read your authentic scriptures and ponder on it.
RIP!
Superstition belief....snake does not spare anyone....but it should have...cant play with it....
we cannot blame the snake here because
girls know that is god as per hindhu culture but
snake dont know that it is god
Cow, buffalo, Rat, Elephant, Crow, Monkey, Donkey, Snake.. What next? Mooka praani galella dewara? worship the creator not creations! and specially not animals..
Indians are foolish, this happens only in India they do not know what to worship linga, snake, monkey, donkey, pig etc.....
Yes to cover their cunning and so called deva bhakti, some will start to blame that lady. Punishment from Naag devtha and they will continue these bling practice.
karana rao, Where is naga loka?
Whatever may be the reason, we lost a precious life. Pray for God's mercy on the poor family.
Snake is not God or it will not take you to God. Worship the creator and not his creation.
this is called mooda nambike and she deserve for it.
she will directly go to nagaloka, lucky girl.
