The BJP has called for changing the name of Sulthan Bathery town in the Wayanad Lok Sabha constituency, arguing that it was originally known as Ganapathivattom before Tipu Sultan's invasion of the Malabar region two centuries ago. BJP state president K Surendran, contesting against Rahul Gandhi and Annie Raja in Wayanad, raised the issue, stating that the town should be called by its original name. He criticized Congress and LDF for referring to it as Sulthan Bathery, highlighting Tipu Sultan's historical invasion and conversion of people in Kerala.
