Bastards like this House Slave must be SPIT ON BY ALL HINDUS.  It is clear that this piece of RAW SEWAGE is determined to let neighbors fight/hate each other, let Villages fight/hate each other,  let Temples and Mandirs fight/hate each other.  THIS SHAMELESS FRIGGIN DAAG MUST NOT BE ALLOWED TO GET AWAY WITH THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guyana is not the only country that had issues over the date with one part of India observing Diwali on November 10 and another on November 11.

it is October 30, 2016 and the Government saying November 29, 2016.

SOmething wrong here...it's a month apart...unless the newspaper mess up the dates

Lol.  I think the poor writer was so confused he mixed up the dates.  But all jokes aside, if Ramjattan was a good politician he would lay low and let this slide after the backlash we just saw two weeks ago.

Some local residents said that cars were driving around their neighborhoods to see who light diya on November 10 and who light on November 11.

It is customary in the month of November for the Ministry of Home Affairs to release a list of national holidays for the upcoming year. That list is used by businesses and religious organizations to print their calendars for distribution by Xmas-New Year.

If the 2016 list says November 29 will be Diwali Day, it is not final and official until the Minister signs off for the date to be published in the Official Gazette. That will happen around Oct-early Nov next year. So, there is a lot of time for consultations with the Hindu organizations.

Bear in mind that Guyana calendars normally show one date for Eid-ul-Adha but the new moon may not cooperate for that date, and the Muslim community understand that.

WHY THIS SHIT WAS NEVER AN ISSUE BEFORE A house slave jackass  GOT THE responsibility??????????????????????????

cause the Dharmic people seem to want to make it an issue because the PPP lost....

NO!! Let me explain it, because the House Slave Daag want to spite the Dharmic Sabha, Remember Reepu and hid daughter has been leading the Sabha for many years.  This House Slave thinks people stupid!!!!

bai...I aint know bout yall runnings, so I'll keep out

Here we go again.  Ramjattan has to understand that the Dharmic Sabha is the largest HINDU organisation in Guyana.  The evidence was dewali 2015.

75% of the hindus lighted their diya on the day Vindya Persaud called.

He got to park his ego and call the girl in for consultation.

SHYTE man, these people will not stop.  Is the PPP arrogance all over again or what?

Nehru, politics aside, it is the Ministry of Home Affairs that has responsibility for managing national holidays in Guyana.

At a personal level, Khemraj Ramjattan may or may not be the Minister of Home Affairs when the time comes for Diwali to be gazetted.

But the Ministry must respect the people.  They rule in the name of the people, not themselves and their egos.

This war with Vindi is only causing the Coalition to lose points with the Hindus of Guyana.

Maybe Khemraj is suffering from post traumatic stress disorder because he was promised the Home Affairs Minister position prior to the election.  When the cabinet was announced and he realized he was duped he took it as a shock.  But somewhere in his head, in the deep dark recesses of his mind he still thinks he is the Home Affairs Minister.

Cheap pot shot there Alexei Ramtar. Your father was a DO DO DUCK and was the most stupid president every in the history of Guyana.

My father????  I wish I had those bragging rights.

Pavi, you have issues bhai - SPIT, RAW SEWAGE, SHAMELESS FRIGGIN DAAG.
