Bengaluru, Oct 30: The state government, after deciding to do away with the plans to celebrate Tipu Sultan birth anniversary, is now thinking on dropping the lessons on Tipu Sultan in school textbooks.

According to reliable sources, the Primary and Secondary Education minister S Suresh Kumar, had reportedly sought a report from the department on dropping the lessons on Tipu Sultan.

The minister’s action was prompted by a representation made from the BJP MLA, from Madikeri, Appachu Ranjan, seeking to remove all chapters on Tipu Sultan, the legendary warrior, who was a nightmare to the British rulers in the late 19th centuries, from the state text books.

The BJP MLA, Ranjan, in his letter has reportedly claimed that Tipu Sultan had been glorified in the history textbooks and all the information provided about him was not true.

This brainless, corrupt, RSSS, have no heart, no brain.

There is no such a worst selfish community in the world.

 

For their selfishness, they killed Father of Nation.

They glorified the killer and started worshipping him.

They want to award Bharat Ratna to their mentor Savarkar  who should have been hanged for spreading hatterd. .

 

Their strength is illiteracy of the people  in the country.

They spoiled the whole nation, made the industry to close and made the employees as jobless.

 

The time will come soon to face the consequences.

the nation is in the hands of brainless devils.

God save the country.

New Delhi, Mar 19: The Supreme Court on Thursday upheld the validity of Karnataka's 2018 reservation law, which granted reservation in promotion to employees belonging to SC and ST categories.

A bench headed by Justice DY Chandrachud holds that applications filed by a group of general category employees for applying 'post-based quota' and the principle of the creamy layer at entry-level in public employment are not maintainable.

The apex court had, in November last year, reserved its order on the applications filed by general category candidates in the matter.

In May last year, the top court had upheld the law allowing reservations in promotions for SC and ST candidates with consequential seniority.
