I welcome the Chief Minister’s announcement of first of Thai as Tamil New Year Day. This is a mark of honour for the farmers on whom the whole country dependents for its food. So it is a right move. The change adopted by our ancient language of Tamil is one of the significant reasons for its growth. So it will be a good sign if we extend our support to this change. This change will not disturb the people in any form. Further, celebrating New Year on Thai one will prove meaningful and add more pleasure to farmers and people. This will be an encouraging factor for farmers. It will be amazing if the New Year celebration adds to Pongal celebration.
