Tipu was the only one King who fought till his last breathe against british. He was a big treat to British invader which Is still rememered by the Brishers and written in British history. In his kingdom he respected all religion and their worship place. His administration was with all religions. He never spared any single british supporters in some part of MYSORE greedy people supported the Britisher's to enter our Country and cheated the great king. Fact's are trying to erase from the real history and nothing else. But facts never hidden at any cost by any one. Jai Hind Jai Karnataka! Long Live United India
What did Tipu do in India?? Looted all money, attacked many Hindus and Hindu temple and still court supporting people who stands for tipu
There were many deregatory comments against Godse. Why court not taking action against that.
Total injustice. Tipu was a traitor.
