Addressing press persons here on Wednesday, November 7 the committee members informed that a district-level protest with regard to Tipu Jayanti will be held on Friday, November 9 and a peaceful protest will be held on Saturday, November 10.
The committee member further said that Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy had earlier said if JD(s) came to power he would cancel the Tipu Jayanthi fete, but now the CM of the state has failed to keep his words.
