He said that the British had set up a separate police to nab Tantia Mama but they too could not catch him. A traitor was joined by the British, which led to his capture.
Shivraj further said that a big event was going to be held here today but could not be done due to rain but the main event will be held in Indore today. Today, we bowed at the temple where Kali Mata is seated, where Tantia Mama used to come and worship. Whatever happens in his family here even today, this is the first time that an invitation is given. Cm Shivraj attacked the Congress saying why didn't you install the statue of Tantia Mama earlier, just continued to praise one family. Why was Tantia Mama's lesson not taught in school courses?
