Islamabad, May 5 (IBNS): Pakistan PM Imran Khan on Saturday paid tributes to 18th century ruler of Mysore Tipu Sultan on his death anniversary.

Imran Khan said he has affection towards Tipu as he preferred freedom from the life of slavery and sacrificed his life to fight for that.

"Today 4th May is the death anniversary of Tipu Sultan - a man I admire because he preferred freedom and died fighting for it rather than live a life of enslavement," Khan tweeted.
