CHENNAI:
Tamil Nadu governor Banwarilal Purohit
on Monday exhorted people to lead a simple life.
Purohit was addressing the first session of the legislative assembly after the
DMK government took charge.
Commencing his speech at Kalaivanar Arangamin Tamil,
Purohit
said, “Kaalai vannakkam. Elimaiyana vazhkkai vazhungal. That is for all. Ithu irullai agatrividum. Ithu enathu seithi (Good morning. Lead a simple life. It will remove darkness. This is my message).”
He went on to add that
Tamil
was a beautiful language.
Later, the governor prompted the members to thump desks when he read out the line, “providing clean administration was the highest priority (of the government).” He appreciated the government’s intention and wondered why the members were silent.
