Wah Wah. On Kangaiya Lal's Janmastami, you made a beautiful post.'
Thanks,tommarrow here we will celebrate Lord Krishna's birthday. Many people keep fast on this day.
Yes.Same fasting, same rituals here in my state AP.
South don't celebrate other festivals of North, Depawali, Holi, Rakshbandhan, but looking Janamashtami is universal festival for whole country.
Deepawali and Janmastami celebrated in South. But not Rakshabandhan.
AS I know celebration of Deeawali in South is limited up to lighting Deepaks and making sweets. But in North it is principal festival. Even Government pay bonus to employs on this festival.
In South, especially in AP, the main festival is Sankranti followed by Dasara. It's during Dasara ,Government employees will be Given Bonus.
