India has two types of beliefs about Tipu Sultan, the king of Mysore. One is the Secular Jamaat, which describes Tipu Sultan as a great and patriotic king, who fought for the country against the British. On the other hand, right-wing people believe that Tipu was a very cruel king, who used to persecute the Hindus and non-Muslims of the country in the name of Islam. His motive behind fighting the British was not his patriotism but his kingdom, for which he also sought help from the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire.

Tipu's court historian Mir Hussain Kirmani, while mentioning a place about him , wrote that 'Tipu wanted to suppress the Maratha, Nizam, the king of Travancore, the Coorg. For this, he did not commit any cruelty. In 1788, Tipu Sultan sent a large army to Kerala. The famous Calicut city was destroyed. Hundreds of temples and churches were demolished. Thousands of Hindus and Christians were forcibly converted to Muslims. Those who did not agree, were killed.

It is clear from the talk of Hussain Kirmani that Tipu was a cruel ruler. For this reason, the Marathas and other kings also supported the British in the fight against Tipu in 1799. After three weeks of heavy bombardment, Tipu's fort walls cracked. However, Tipu kept fighting. He was killed at the door of the Srirangapatnam fort with a sword in his hand. Tipu was undoubtedly a great warrior, but it would be wrong to say great king.
