Tippu a secular character?  I will die laughing on a bed of nails. I will only say he was not only a poor general, but also a bigoted person who forcibly circumcised Hindus and forced them to eat beef. He razed temples and churches. I have 2 posts on Boddunan. People my care to read if they have time. Opinion about Tippu  as a general after studying his campaigns at Staff Collrge.

plus1.pngwell, his belonging to the particular community is enough to elevate him to great levels and for congress supporters to sing praises of him to the last breath. Whatever truth we produce of his 'greatness' and 'secularism' will only earn us frowns and indignant repartees that we belong to the saffron cult! LOL

Ultimately which historical figure is going to be spared by today's knowledgeable "historians'. Why study a failed general in Staff College I wonder. Which 'Indian" king and his army withstood the onslought of foreign invaders in the last 1000 years. Please look inwards also for a change.

well i think he is a respect for all Indian and his name should not be used for any political reason

Poor Tipu must be turning in his grave. Both sides are doing injustice to his contributions. Bihar has shown that you cannot win votes by dividing communities but still the game goes on.

 

You mean it was Muslim vote against Hindus which won in Bihar? It was nothing but intelligent vote bank management under the leadership of Guru of the game Lalu Pd yadav.

Yes it right Lalu formula MY success this time. Lalu is biggest racialist. it is surprising thing why people of Bihar choose gudaraj, and reject prospect of development of state.

 

 

People of Bihar chose Nitishraj over Modiraj. You must respect their choice. Only if people vote for BJP then they are wise is not fair conclusion. Development takes place in all ideologies and cannot become  an absolute mantra of BJP only. BJP joining LJP and Manjhi and Khushwaha  should also be then termed as racialist act.

I read in my text book that Tipu Sultan was hero who fought with British for freedom. It was ploted bias of historians who wrote books and they hide fact that Tipu Sultan also forcely convert religion of Hindus and Christians. This character was very common among the Muslim rulers. What happen at present is only and only dirty politics.

True that he fought valiantly against the British but that does not lessen the fact that he was a religious bigot and that he tortured hundreds of Hindus on account of their religion and so, calling him a true patriot and a secular person now is laughable. Also, people today deserve know the true history and not just a painted version that congress might choose to project.

Indeed winner wrote history. Our history was written by British. If some one save 5 life he will not get right to kill 1 person. Tipu Sultan was fought with  British for his state, it is not favor on any one. I read one book about Rani Padmini of Chittore. It was written by British writer. He favors Alaudin Khilji in this book. But it is not right.

 

 

Tipu fought against the British just to save his empire and not to free India ...But of course facts get twisted and distorted to suit the people in power. He now becomes a patriot to some , and raping, killing and forcibly converting a few hundred Hindus is no big issue definitely nothing compared to dadri killing and Kalburgi Killing ! The problem with the so called (in)secularists and Communal parties is that they dont look beyond their immediate benefit and would go to any extent to distort facts , when it hinders their own agenda . Karnataka state is having the dubious distinction of having Rape a week in the Capital city Bangalore, but does a corrupt Siddaramaiah and his grand old party care ? Tipu's birth anniversary celebration for which a lavish amount has been granted precedes all else - power crisis/shortage, farmers suicide, rape and the worst ever law and order situation ! 


Pay no mind to those who talk behind your back, it simply means that you are two steps ahead !!!
