New year's day

Today is the beginning of Tradisional new year for Kannada, Telugu and Marathi speaking people. My best wishes for the day to those who celebrate this day. According to Vedic Scriptures, this is the day on which the 9 day battle between Good and evil (between Lord Shree Raam and demonic Raavan) began and ended with the Lord's Victory. The day on which the battle ended is celebrated as Shree Raama Navami by Hindus all over the world.
