Hyder, a name that echoes through history with tales of bravery and conquest. From the British Square at Pollilur to the valiant Indian Cavalry Assault, Hyder Ali's legacy is etched in time. TIPU SULTAN (1749?-1799), the son Ali, continued his father's fight for freedom during the Battle of Pollilur. This clash marked a turning point in their struggle against foreign invaders. The Battle of Pollilur (1 / 4) was a fierce encounter where Hyder's forces faced off against mercenaries seeking to undermine their cause. The determination and resilience displayed by Hyder's troops were unmatched. In another corner of the world lies a different kind - Black bear catching wild Alaskan salmon at Fish Creek, near Stewart border in Alaska. A testament to nature's beauty and its ability to thrive even amidst human borders. Hyder Ali (Haidar Ali), an influential ruler from Mysore in Southern India, left an indelible mark on history. His flight after the Battle of Porto Novo showcases his strategic prowess and unwavering spirit. Even today, the mention of "Hyder" brings forth images of courage and strength. Whether it be on battlefields or amidst wildlife sanctuaries like Hyder/Stewart border between Canada and Alaska (US), this name resonates with power. Let us remember those who fought under the banner - warriors who stood tall against oppression and injustice. Their stories continue to inspire generations as we strive for a better tomorrow.
