<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->14 compulsary holidays include :
3 national holidays,
4 muslim holidays mentioned above,
2 Christian (GFriday, Christmas)
2 Hindu (Diwali, V Dashami)
1 each for Jain, Sikh, Bauddha<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
This is the height of degeneration that India has reached, the 75% community get's 2 compulsory holidays while the 13% Muslim community gets 4 compulsory holidays, in the West not even one country observes a single holiday concerning Hindus even if Hindus are about 1% (as in UK) but in India we have been observing xtian holidays since independence even though officially they are only 2%.
I remember mullah Mulayam even declared that UP schools will be closed for friday afternoon's since Muslim kids have to go for namaaz or somthing.
Holi used to be more of a North Indian thing back in the day but now it's very popular in the South also, mostly in the cities such as Hyderabad and Chennai, this was a bit like the spread of Ganesh Chathurthi to the South although it was started by Tilak in Maharashtra to bring Indians together, even the Dravidian in TN parties have been unable to do anything about the emergence of more and more pan Hindu festivals.
