Bengaluru, November 6: Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy said that if the BJP people do not want Tippu Jayanti, it was better to stay at home.

Speaking to reporters at his Home Office Krishna here on Tuesday, the CM said that “I have never opposed the Tippu Jayanti before. There are several religions and castes in the country. Why BJP is opposing to celebrate Jayantis of their choice? If they tried to disturb law and order situation during Tippu Jayanthi, the government would not keep quiet. It is not fair to damage the public and private properties in the name of opposition”, the CM said.
