The festival of Diwali is celebrated with great pomp in India. However, in some states there is no provision for holidays or there are less holidays. The reason behind this is that due to cultural diversity, along with Diwali, other festivals are also important, but the holiday of Diwali has no importance. Let us tell you which are those states where children are disappointed during Diwali holidays.
Holidays are declared in many states of India on the festival of Diwali. However, in some states there is no holiday on Diwali. This year too, Diwali holiday has not been given in many states. These mainly include Kerala, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Jammu and Kashmir, Assam etc.
Kerala and Himachal Pradesh
In Kerala, the impact of Diwali is less and only one day off is given on 1 November. At the same time, in Himachal Pradesh also there is no special holiday on Diwali.
Uttarakhand
There are holidays in Uttarakhand from November 1 to November 3, but no special holiday has been given for Diwali. Only November 1 has been declared a holiday for Diwali in the schools here.
Jammu and Kashmir
There is no Diwali holiday even in hilly areas like Jammu and Kashmir. Here people give priority to their local traditions and festivals. Although people here sometimes celebrate the festival of Diwali, it is not generally recognized as a government holiday.
Meghalaya and Arunachal Pradesh
Other festivals have greater importance in Meghalaya and Arunachal Pradesh. The local tribal cultures in the high hilly areas of Meghalaya have their own characteristics, where other festivals are given priority over Diwali.
People of these states do not get benefits
In such a situation, it has been seen many times that despite the absence of important holidays like Diwali for working people, they try to maintain a balance between their work and family responsibilities. In such a situation, people appeal to the authorities for a holiday, so that they can celebrate this special occasion with their loved ones.
