We have located and completed the documentation of 100 Hindu temples that came under the sword of Tipu Sultan and ensuing Jihad.

We intend to complete documentation of another 200 destroyed temples in the next two years.

All the data will be published as books.

Of these 100 temples documented, restoration of two temples has been completed and three others ongoing.

Completed: ketto.org/kl002 , ketto.org/kl005

Ongoing: ketto.org/kl007 , ketto.org/kl008 , ketto.org/kl009

During research we learned of an ancient river festival that stopped in 1766 AD due to invasion of Hyder Ali, father of Tipu.

The same was revived during years 2019 and 2020.

ketto.org/rt001 and ketto.org/rt002 has details.

Destroyed temples of Kerala Vol 1 tells the history of 25 Hindu temples that was destroyed by Tipu and his successors. The book can be bought via Amazon or read via Kindle.
