I am from north and never been to South India. I can only say about North. In North India, there is no restriction at all. Even women wear white thread ( Janeu/Janou).

Mudy: Let me state what should be by now obvious - I am a south Indian. I have visited North as a tourist. My fascination is the differences in our narrations. I am yet to see (I mean know or hear) any tamilian lady wearing "poonal" - sacred thread.
So in the North, do the women wear it regularly or only on special occasions?
