Jealousy no medicine bro.
Yes Tipu punished all the desh drohis and one holded britishers tail for money and land. For the rest all he was a care taker and sincere ruler.
In most of the Mangalore surrounding peoples are still enjoying with their free earned wealth and propoerty.
But sachai hamesha kadvi lagti hai. a abhi ka duniya ka dastoot ban gaya
if your family ruled for people's welfare , tippu might not troble you
