BJP Removes Tipu Sultan Name From Maharashtra's Akola Civic Hall
A political row has resurfaced in Maharashtra after BJP leaders removed the name of Tipu Sultan from the main hall of the Akola Municipal Corporation and replaced it with a board naming Sambhaji as "Dharamveer Sambhaji Maharaj." The hall had been named after Tipu Sultan in 2012. The move has reignited debate over historical legacies and identity politics in the state.
