Muslim Human Rights Association and Hzt. Tipu Sultan Utsav Samithi of Bidar celebrated 263rd birthday of Hzt. Tipu Sultan. The youth leader Mr. Syed Waheed Lakhan told that no one has taught us the lesson of leading the life like a Tiger except Hzt. Tipu Sultan Shaheed. The British, the Marathas and the Nizam of Deccan killed him through treachery. He was the first king to devise a missile. When he raised the weapon for the first time in his life, it was to save the chastity of Hindu women. After the assassination of Tipu Sultan, the British General had told that “Now India is ours”.
Mr. Padmakar Patil started his address by saying “Bismillah” and told that only tigers are born in the house of tigers. He further told that in the royal court of Tipu Sultan the Hindus occupied important position. Today, the people are saying that India is not the land for the Muslims which is totally wrong. He mentioned that the Hindus worship the land only once a day but the Muslims offer Sajada on the land for 5 times a day.
Mr. N. Mahesh told that Tipu Sultan was the only freedom fighter who was secular. Ms. Juveria Begum started the function with her speech saying that the British mothers used to terrify their children by taking the name of Tipu Sultan. A large number of Hindus and Muslims attended the function.
