Earlier, Congress leader Shashi Tharoor has showered praise on Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan for his “genuine and far-reaching interest” in Indian history, saying that it was “disappointing” that it took a Pakistani leader to remember Tipu Sultan.
“Today 4th May is the death anniversary of Tipu Sultan – a man I admire because he preferred freedom and died fighting for it rather than live a life of enslavement,” the Pakistan PM had tweeted. The Tweet impressed Tharoor and he said Imran’s interest in shared history of Indian sub continent is genuine.
“One thing i personally know about @imranKhanPTI is that his interest in the shared history of the Indian subcontinent is genuine & far-reaching. He read; he cares. It is disappointing, though, that it took a Pakistani leader to remember a great Indian hero on his punyathithi.” Tweeted Tharoor.
But apparently, his tweets have not impressed many Twitteratis as they pointed out that Tipu was a deceitful king and that he did many atrocities in Malabar region. Check out some of the responses.
