Tamil Anthem Position Sparks Fresh Outrage At TVK Govt's Oath Event

The Tamil anthem was played last yet again. This is the second time it has happened in two weeks.

On May 10, a huge row erupted when 'Tamil Thaai Vaazhthu' (state song of Tamil Nadu) was played last, a break from established practice, at actor-turned-politician Vijay's swearing-in ceremony as the new Tamil Nadu Chief Minister.

National song Vande Mataram was played first, followed by national anthem Jana Gana Mana and then the Tamil invocation song.
