THEVAR JAYANTHI IS MUKKULATHOR THIRUNAAL



Thevar Jayanthi is celebrated by Mukkulathor community members on 30 October each year. It is actualy the birthday of the late Muthuramalingam Thevar, the great man who brought the Kallars, Maravars and Agamudayars under one Mukkulathor umbrella.
We should remember the sacrifice of our past leaders like Thevar Ayya on this day. When the British discriminated us as Criminal Tribes and took away our rights, it was people like him who stood up to fight against it.
For me, it is not just Thevar Ayya's birthday, it is a day for the Kallars, Maravars and Agamudayars to remember that they are one. The unity of the three clans as one Mukkulathor community must be preserved.
Therefore, 30 October should also be celebrated as Mukkulathor Thirunaal.
