Our History

PANGUNI UTHIRAM for the first time

IN March 1966 - a memorable month and year, dating back nearly four decades - when a tiny spark ignited the fire in the minds of a small group of South Indian textile employees residing in and around Maninagar, eastern part of Ahmedabad, Gujarat State, culminated into celebrating the most unique and significant Tamil festival - PANGUNI UTHIRAM - dedicated to Lord Murugan (Karthikeyan), for the first time. It was a modest celebration of feeding the poor on that auspicious day.
