Janamashtami to be Celebrated Uniformly on August 16

in India

Punjab Kesar

 

NEW DELHI, INDIA, August 4, 2006: A debate arose in

Delhi about the proper day to celebrate Janamashtami.

The national general secretary of the Sanatan Dharam

Sammelan, Shri R.N. Vats announced, "There are no

differences with regard to the celebration of Shri

Krishna Janamashtami. Some people try to celebrate

festivals on different dates without any reason." Shri

Vats chaired the meeting of the Sammelan which

discussed the matter and said many Sanskrit scholars

and astrologers had attended when this decision was

made that August 16 was the correct date.
