Great moments of history are not
those when empires were built, but those when human
spirit soared high to evolve, nourish, cherish and defend the finest values of life. All
history is nothing but the unfolding drama of human freedom, political freedom, social
freedom, cultural freedom and economic freedom. Tipu lived and died to personify and
objectify the values of these freedoms. His short but stormy rule
was eventful in many respects, but its main significance in life is his strong opposition
to the British in India. |
