    I don't know how many Malayalis are here in our group. Our state was formed on November 1st, 1956
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerala_Piravi
    We celebrate it wearing set saris and dhotis at colleges and offices ;) . Nothing else :silly:
    Instead of just conveying wishes, let us see it as a discussion topic and pour a little information in our forum, about formation of different states of our country, its anniversary and any interesting or valuable information related to it. Please include some mythological facts of your states' origin as well.
    According to mythology, Parasurama, incarnation of Vishnu throw his axe from Gokurnam to Kanyakumari giving rise to a new land (formed from sea). Before the formation of state, Palakkad was a part of Tamil Nadu and Kanyakumari belonged to Kerala. When states were divided based on language spoken, even the palace of Travancore kings who ruled Travancore (Thiruvithankur) was added to Tamil Nadu, though still under Kerala Government rule.


    You mentioned set sari. I dont know what it it. Could you please explain a bit?


    You are from my neighbouring state...yet you don't knw Kerala sari and dhoti....(those offwhite sarees with silk border).
    Not only Sarees, but set mund also.....
    Set Mund is preferred traditional than set sari...
    In Nair marriages, ladies use set mund, not set sari.
    I also like it very much
    Do you people know set mund?

    Schools celebrate more than offices, they have programmes and cultural dress competition

    @ Robert, Set saris are the iconic kerala white saree with gold border. It is actually supposed to be a 2 piece saree showing the gold border

    That gold border thing is called as kasav or kesav border.... i guess sandhya will let you know

    YEAH I am listening...... the thing is, we cannot alter the constitution, thats why only option is to copy!!!

    In law exams, you cannot alter anything , otherwise you will not be awarded marks. If lawyers dont speak exactly what they are supposed to address , they will be penalised. Law is law yar, how can you expect me to write on my own?

    ha, i have the previlage to celebrate both AP and Kerala formation day!

    Yes, I have mentioned in my post... set mund consists of 2 pieces..... 1 piece girls wear it as dhoti. Then use the second piece as shawl. (similar to half sari of Tamil Nadu). Kasavu should come in front.

    Swetha, do you have set mund or set sari.....? (mund means dhoti)
    Also want to know if any celebrations in your state?

    Today it will be a traditional fashion show in every school, office and colleges of Kerala :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    "Along with Haryana :) , my state Karnataka too is celebrating Rajyotsava today and it is a public holiday and I wish all the Kannadigas a Happy Rajyotsava...."

    Can you say a few words about Rajyotsava, how it's celebrated etc etc...
