Lok Sabha speaker om birla met Prime

Parliament building

there have been many stories about the
significance of the sengol
is it really important
what is it let me explain
what is the sengal and why is it so
important
Union home minister Amit Shah
said the single
will be placed next to the seat of the
Lok Sabha speaker
the word sangol
is derived from the Tamil word which
means righteousness
it stands for justice and fairness
this will be placed inside the Lok Sabha
let me explain the reason for this
you all know that India got independence
from the British on 15th August to 1947.
however just before this British leaders
consulted with Pandit jawaharlal nehru
and inquire about a traditional Indian
ceremony
in the UK they have a coronation
ceremony to Crown the new king to
signify the transfer of power through
generations
they wanted to know if a similar
tradition existed in India
nehru then went to consult C
rajagopalachari
see Raj gopalachari then told him about
the Chola Dynasty era
where Kings used to hand over sangol to
their successors
symbolizing the transfer of power
nehru then decided to go ahead with this
a five feet skepta was made of gold
it was constructed by two men women
sudhakar both are still alive and
remember making it
high priest of the thiruvavadutra
adhinam a 500 year old Servite monastery
and the person who sang Divine songs in
Tamil temples
conducted the ceremony
and handed the sengal to nehru on 14th
August 1947.
it was a sign of a shift of power to the
people of our country how interesting is
that
the sengal was kept at the al-abad
Museum in uttar Pradesh
now it will be placed next to the Lok
Sabha speaker seat
amateur said that Prime Minister Modi
will inaugurate the new Parliament
prime minister Narendra Modi is expected
to walk alongside musicians and then
place the single inside the Lok Sabha
leading the procession will be a group
of musicians playing the naraswaram a
classical instrument from Tamil Nadu
amitsha said to inaugurate the new
Parliament only signing documents is not
enough
we must follow our Indian traditions
wow he stated that we must be proud of
our Indian culture and protect it
however there is a controversy
surrounding this
Advocate CR jayasukin filed a pil in the
Supreme Court
the petition said that Prime Minister
Modi cannot inaugurate the new
Parliament building
it said that president must inaugurate
the new Parliament
this is very wrong as the president is
the head and should inaugurate the
parliament
the Supreme Court will announce their
judgment on the pil
