QUOTE Ponggal or Pongal, also known as Makara Sankranti, is celebrated in mid-January by South Indians as a festival marking the rice harvest. Pongal, a mixture of sweet boiled rice is made and offered to Surya, the Sun God. The name is derived from the Tamil word pongu, meaning “boil over” or “flourish”. https://eresources.nlb.gov.sg/infopedia/art...2004-12-28.htmlSo Muslim student should not celebrate this. Because we only have one god. Thanks.. This post has been edited by FlyingVCLplayer: Jan 14 2020, 10:56 PM
