		<title>Comment on Hindu Calendar Reform by Pradipta</title>

		<description>It is true that hindus are celebrating uttarayana 23 days after winter solstice. But this has got nothing to do with the calendar. The only thing we need now is to correct the dates for these festivals that are of seasonal relevance.
There is no need to correct the calendar itself since the bikram era calendar is based on sideral year. All the months are also created in accordance with sun&#039;s position in the zodiacs.
I don&#039;t know why the so called calendar reform committee is trying to alter the months instead of correctly placing the religious festivals.</description>
