If anyone agrees with Minister Ramjattan please step forward

Oct 26, 2015 Letters

Dear Editor,
The Letter “Time for President Granger to intervene in the Diwali row” (K.N 23/10) by ‘Frustrated Hindus’ refers: Minister Ramjattan did not arbitrarily decide on the date for Diwali to be November 10th. No! T
he writers will see that he gave a Chronological order of events leading up to his decision. It took him four (4) months of deliberation. He did “bring the Hindu groups to the table.” Dharmic Sabha chose to make a written submission instead. The statement, “For 40 years Dharmic Sabha has been setting the dates” gives away the position of the writers. By the way, Pandits Council used to give the dates up to 1992.
I ask the writers to re-read Mr. Ramjattan’s statement very carefully to see whether it makes sense.
If anyone agrees with the Minister’s reasonable and logical conclusion, please step forward with your arguments, or forever hold thy Peace.
Pandit R. Balbadar
