State News: Tamil Nadu declares 'Tamil Thai Vazhthu' as state song

State News: Recently, the Tamil Nadu government has announced ‘Tamil Thai Vazhthu’ as the state anthem. Which should be sung before the commencement of any function in all educational institutions, universities, government offices and public sector undertakings.

The Madras High Court recently ruled that ‘Tamil Thai Vazhthu’ is only a prayer song and not the national anthem and hence, there is no need for everyone to be in a standing posture when it is sung. Chief Minister MK Stalin said that a government order has been issued to this effect, which states that everyone except the handicapped should stand when 55 second long songs are sung.

It should be sung before the commencement of any function at all educational institutions, universities, government offices, public sector undertakings and other public forums in the state, he said in a statement quoting GO.

 

‘Tamil Thai Vazhthu’ has got official status since 1970. It is also the official song of the Union Territory of Puducherry. Jaya Bharata Jananiya Tanujate is the official state anthem of Karnataka and Bande Utkal Janani is the official state anthem of Odisha.
