History of Tamil New Year

Tamils throughout the world celebrate Ponggal in mid-January, which is observed as Thamizhar Thirunaal and hence Tamil new Year as some.

But mid-April is known as Thamizh Puthaandu.

Could some people shed light on how these came about and how are they different.

I hope this remains a thread on history and does not digress to the usual fights. Bore adichu pochu.
