Hanuman Jayanti celebrated on wrong date !

[Seetaram]

Hanuman was born in Vaisakha (2nd) lunar month of indian almanac, when moon was in poorvabhadra constellation on a saturday.

But many are confusing the date and celebrating on fullmoon day of chaitra (1st) lunar month, when moon is in chitta constellation.

In chaitra (1st) lunar month, when moon is in chitta constellation, on a tuesday, hanuman has found seetha and also burned lanka on same day.

So tuesday and this day are celebrated as Hanuman Vijayam as he accomplished his task of finding seetha and warning Raavan by semi destroying his lanka.

I wonder why even organizations like Bhajrang Dal are ignorant about these

Real hanuman jayanti is on may 15th in 2012.

You can notice that people born with moon in poorvabhadra (Pooratadhi) have good built like hanuman

Not only in Andhra Pradesh, but also in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka Hanuman Jayanthi is being celebrated today only. Many people here are visiting temples and celebrating Hanuman Jayanthi.
