Will you give away land which Tipu Sultan donated for Temples, should that community ask?: HDK
Mysuru: Amidst the controversies over mosques and temples, former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Wednesday asked if the Hindus will return the lands donated by Tipu Sultan for temples during his regime.
“Tipu Sultan had donated land to several Hindu Temples. If that community were to come and ask for it, will you be ready to give?” he questioned.
Speaking to the media representatives at the Mandakalli Airport in the city on Wednesday, he said, “Some people are needlessly creating confusion about the Srirangapatna Jamiya Masjid. Did God come in their dreams and tell them that it was his original place? Did he ask it to be corrected?” he asked.
“In his time, Tipu donated land to several Hindu temples. If this were to appear in that community’s dreams, then would they leave the land for that community? Setting aside all of this, look out for people’s lives”, Kumaraswamy said.
Voicing that the country will not have a good future because of this kind of an environment, he expressed fear of such developments continuing another year and said, “Their work is to just create unrest in the society. Therefore, the country is facing an imminent fear of increased unrest”, he expressed his sadness.
Addressing the issue about B.S Yediyurappa’s son losing out on the ticket to contest in the Parishad, Kumaraswamy said, “Citing some principle, they haven’t given him the ticket. I see symptoms of this coming back to harm the BJP. There is no question of other parties experiencing loss or gain because of this. However, this will bring some serious consequences to the government. There are symptoms of bad consequences falling upon the administration. Groupism is likely to increase within the BJP”, he said.
