Change in Tamil New Year from April 14 to Jan 15
I vehemently protest this Bill by Dr. Kalaingar Mu.Karunanidhi.
Stupid thing, Foolish Policy.
This "Chithirai Vishu" is celebrated all across India:
Kerala : "Vishu"
Karnataka & Andhra Pradesh as "Ugadi"
Maharashtra it is known as "Gudipadava
Baisakhi (Punjab),
Poila Baishakh (Bengal), Bohaag Bihu (Assam)
Singlaese as Buddhika http://buddika.wordpress.com/
[at least Singalese & Tamils are UNITED in this, Karuna wants to cut this also]
http://www.ambimama.com/ says thus:-
The Tamil calendar is based on the Hindu solar calendar also used in Assam, Bengal, Kerala, Nepal, Manipur, Orissa and the Punjab. It in turn influenced the calendars of Burma, Cambodia, Laos, Sri Lanka and Thailand where the traditional New Year falls around April 14 as well. The Hindu lunar calendar is conversely used in Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Maharashtra where the traditional year begins on the new moon preceding April 14. This corresponds to the "Hindu century". The Vakya or Tirukannitha Panchangam (the traditional Tamil almanac) outlines this sequence.
By this CROOKED decision M.Karunanidhi [Mooda Karuna?] further distances Tamils from Indians & Sinhalese, Punjabis, Assamese, Burmese. Laos, Thailand, Cambodia etc.
What he tries to achieve is making Pongal as the TRUE Tamil Puthandu
so that Tamil MUSLIM and CHRISTIANS will celebrate it
It is a BAD decision
Tamil MUSLIMS and CHRISTAINS will never consider any Indian / Tamil tradition as TRULY their own, they have their own INTEGRITY and FANATICISM
MK Govt should be dismissed for this
Thaip Pongal Astro-Scientific Reason:
when Sun Enters in 10th House Makara Zodiac which is Jeevana Stana means
"Job, Duty etc" and for this Farmers celebrate Thai Month.
Tamil New Year Astro-Scientific Reason:
when Sun Enters in Mesha of Zodiac. [Start of new Calendar]
So each Tamil New Year is as per above Panchangham, Thirukkanitham, a mathematical rule.
Who is this Atheist volunteering to change this?
As an Atheist, let him celebrate Anna Birthday, Periyar Birthday – he can't impose it on us. I respect Anna, Periyar – but frankly I cant celebrate their Birthdays.
I can't even remember the Mahatma Gandhi's birthday also. What we need is Science and Fiction not Historical Rubbish.
M.K also tells there was no Rama. He was there. He was a Kshatriya King. Also there was a Krishna as Yadava King.
M.K should keep quiet. He is hurting many. He is ANTI HINDU. He is ANTI INDIAN. By doing all these kinds of drama slowly he is becoming ANTI TAMIL too!
It is deeply regrettable that such a learned person is doing politics in people's sentiments.
Some of MK lovers posted this crying blog http://in.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080123201752AAaldtt
MK will loose votes…certainly…
J.Jeyalaitha Madam! Please next time change this rule and bring Sanity.
Pasupathi Kumarappan.
