Every year in late Spring or early summers, we have the festival of Colors: Holi.
This year (and to a big extent) last year, this festival could not be celebrated much as big gatherings are not advisable.
Yet this festival brings colors, joys and even friendship among bitter rivals.
Still wishes to all on this Holi festival. Enjoy safely, and with family.

Yes things would take much more time to improve. We also have a holiday on Good Friday, but Easter day would be working.
Our client folks in Europe have a long weekend with Good Friday and Easter Holidays.

Quite a lot of variance. I wonder if Russia too has Easter and Good Friday celebrations?
If I am not wrong, they perhaps follow some other Church.

We just celebrated at home with good food and dry herbal gulal(color). Yes public gatherings are not allowed.
Plus people are themselves avoiding as we have a recent resurgence of Covid (60k plus ) cases in March.

Not people everywhere. The authorities are getting stricter in most of the places.

He must have enjoyed it. I am not too sure exactly how it is celebrated in Nepal but they would have their own way for sure.

Yes but what I hate is the Holi played with hard to remove colors and with bad intentions.
