I been in Chennai for more than one year. Yeah they gave holiday in Pongol, but I thought Pongol is new crop harvesting day like our Nabanno or Baishakhi in Punjab.
pongal is a harvesting festival .....and is a holiday because its a harvesting festival to thank the gods for a good harvest.....
this new year change was done only recently. and we are sad for that since we have one holiday reduced.....
