Devotees have complained to the Natham police station that they have not been able to find work for more than 422 years.
In Sivagangai District Nerkuppai Command Kawadi, many people from Melachuvari, Valayapatti, Pudupatti and Nerkuppai area used to go to Palani on foot for hundreds of years.
In this situation, the devotees who left on the 13th of this year and went on the Palani Pathayathri through Natham, stayed at Samudrapatti last night (14th). A complaint was lodged at the Natham police station led by Pusari Chettiar, the head of the Chest Command, who said they had found two 3-inch-tall, 3-inch-high bracelets, including a silver pedestal, which they had brought with them, more than 422 years old. Natham police are investigating.
Devotees carrying the Kavadi and the Pathayathri devotees are in great distress as the anointing veil at the Palani Dandayuthapani Swami Temple headquarters is missing. As the Vail was not available after many hours of searching, the new Vail was worshiped as an alternative arrangement and the Kawadi Patrol marched towards Palani.
They said that if a more traditional Vail is found, their new Vail will be donated to the Palani Dandayuthapani Swami Temple and the old Vail will be re-worshiped according to the traditional system.
