"Poochathu Thirunaal" festival started and it is called so because, our Azhagiya Manavalan is decorated in flowers through this festival in order to keep Him cool during this Hot summer. His people are also suffering from the heat in the summer and by decorating Him through these 10 days in flowers and keeping Him cool, we get His blessings and seek Him to protect us always. This festival is also called "Kodai Thirunal".
