The inauguration of the park in the name of 18th-century Mysuru ruler Tipu Sultan on the Republic day by Congress leader and guardian minister of Mumbai, Aslam Shaikh in his constituency has sparked controversy.
Meanwhile, Vishwa Hindu Parishad spokesperson Shriraj Nair said that the naming of the complex after Tipu Sultan is being done with an intention to disrupt peace in the city.
Earlier, the Malvani police have registered two FIRs against Bharatiya Janata Party, Bajrang Dal and Vishwa Hindu Parishad workers after they blocked the road for more than two hours during the protest.
