secular?
onam-the festival that we all malayalees look forward to no matter what is the age, sex and religion.i havent enjoyed this festival last year coz i was in b'lore and here there are not many malayalees and we had class(cant expect a leave in b'lore that too in a bengali dominated college)this year also will be a repetition but i feel really hurt when i heard that even christ college(our neighbours)hasnt allowed their students to wear the traditional dress.this is a college that is dominated by malayalees and according to the college...celebrating all these festivals is against the secularism of the college...so where is this secularism when all the christians have to attend the catholic meetings...why are all christians forced into it??even those who are not catholics have to attend and somethings they say or do are actually against the belief these kids were raised in...where did the college lose its secularism???

@s-sis - since when did christ college stop celebrating onam? i remember when we were students there, we had a pookkalam and onampattu etc. strange! must be the new management.
but never did anyone force the non christians to attend the prayer meetings. and neither were they compulsary. not that i know of.
