Need to celebrate Tamirabharani maha pushkaram as State function
TIRUNELVELI, OCTOBER 03, 2018 00:00 IST
Accusing the State Government of attempting to impose “unrealistic restrictions” on the celebrations associated with Hinduism, Bharatiya Janata Party State president Tamilisai Soundararajan has said that the Tamirabharani maha pushkaram that is to be observed between October 11 and 22, should be celebrated as a ‘State function’.
During an informal chat with the reporters after participating in cleaning of places close to the ‘Thai Poosa Mandapam’ on the bank of the Tamirabharani near the Collectorate on Tuesday, Dr. Tamilisai said the district administration, citing safety reasons had banned bathing at Kurukkuthurai and near the ‘Thai poosa mandapam’, which could not be accepted.
After strengthening the weak structures in these two places, the district administration should take steps for ensuring safe bathing of the devotees at Kurukkuthurai and near ‘Thai Poosa Mandapam’.
Moreover, the district administration should take steps for getting financial assistance from the State Government for strengthening all bathing ghats and the mandapams along the Tamirabharani watercourse before the start of the event.
The BJP president also informed that her party was striving hard to ensure the operation of special trains to Tirunelveli in view of the Tamirabharnai maha pushkaram.
