Politics moving beyond spheres of influence

Can anybody dare to change the Christian or Islamic calendars? Can any body comment on cultural practices that have been followed by various religious groups for over several years?
A political leader who has no beliefs in any religion has changed the Tamil calendar stating some strange reasons. Though Karunanidhi claims to have consulted various Tamil scholars and cultural experts before moving the 'Tamil Nadu Tamil New Year (Declaration) Bill 2008', it is still absolutely ridiculous that he is concentrating on such things while there are bigger problems in Tamil Nadu.

He started this concept called ‘Chennai Sangamam’ which is nothing but a DMK family feast where huge amount of money is being wasted every year in the name of promoting folk art. And now he wants to add more significance to this day by calling in ‘Tamil New Year. None of the opposition parties have expressed any reservation towards this issue, which is directly affecting the Hindu practices.

Though Dec 31 is the last day of every year, according to the financial calendar, which most corporate follow, the accounting year-ends on March 31 universally. Can anyone change these according to his or her whims and fancy?

It now looks like Tamil Nadu is falling prey to the family melodrama of Karunanidhi, Stalin, Azhagiri, Kanimozhi and so on. Its time have an educated, relentless and dignified CM who can think for good and show a strategic direction for the growth of Tamil Nadu.
