Karnataka will burn if Haj Bhavan is named after Tipu

Bengaluru, Jun 24: BJP leader K G Bopaiah on Saturday warned that “the entire state will burn” if the government renames the Haj Bhavan in Bengaluru after 18th century Mysore ruler Tipu Sultan.

The former Legislative Assembly speaker said the Haj Bhavan was meant for Haj pilgrims.

“It wasn’t built to be named after Tipu Sultan, who was a traitor, murderer and one who converted Hindus,” he told reporters. “It will lead to the entire state burning.”

Bopaiah, who represents the Virajpet constituency in Kodagu district, said it was the BJP that sanctioned the Haj Bhavan. “In my district, Tipu Sultan destroyed 310 temples and converted over 80,000 Hindus. Even today, Kodagu people see Tipu as a traitor and a fanatic. There will be severe protests in Kodagu (if the Haj Bhavan is renamed),” he said.

On Friday, Minority Welfare and Wakf Minister B Z Zameer Ahmed Khan said the government received proposals from the Muslim religious scholars demanding that the Haj Bhavan be renamed as Hazrat Tipu Sultan Haj Ghar. The minister said a decision would be taken after consulting Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy.

The BJP has threatened statewide protests if the Haj Bhavan is renamed after Tipu Sultan.

Mumbai, May 13: Members of the Muslim community helped in performing the last rites of their 72-year-old Hindu neighbour in Sewri area here after the deceased's relatives could not reach for his funeral due to the lockdown.

Pandurang Ubale, who was paralysed since the last few months, died at his residence in Zakaria Bunder area of Sewri on Monday. He had been staying there along with his wife and son since some decades.

After his death on Monday, his relatives staying in suburban Mulund, Belapur in adjoining Navi Mumbai and Alibaug in neighbouring Raigad district could not come over to his place in the wake of the coronavirus-induced lockdown.

As Ubale's wife and son were unable to make all arrangements for the funeral, they informed their neighbours, who came forward to help and even prepared the bier.

A neighbour, Asif Sheikh, who attended the funeral, said, We knew Ubale uncle since a long time. He always participated in our festivals and we used to be a part of their festivities. We all came forward to bid him a farewell and helped in performing his last rites."

Last month also,some Muslim men carried the body of a Hindu neighbour in suburban Bandra on their shoulders to the cremation ground after the deceased's relatives were unable to attend the last rites due to the lockdown.
