Re: 2021 Five State Elections

I'd like the government to look at changing the weekly holidays. Sundays were primarily a Christian thing.
Tuesdays and Saturdays are better. There should be flexibility on when Hindus can attend schools and offices. It will help people go to the temple and take part in the rituals.
