    Nepal Declares Public Holidays for Christmas, Udhauli Parva, and Yomari Punhi, Embracing Cultural Diversity


    The Government of Nepal has joyously declared Monday, the 9th of Poush, and Tuesday, the 10th of Poush, as public holidays to celebrate ‘Christmas Day,’ ‘Udhauli Parva,’ and ‘Yomari Punhi,’ showcasing its commitment to embracing the cultural and religious diversity of the nation.

    Globally observed on December 25th, Christmas Day commemorates the birth of Jesus Christ and holds immense religious and cultural significance for billions of people. This holiday is characterized by festive decorations, the exchange of gifts, and gatherings of families and friends.

    Yomari Punhi, a traditional Newari festival, aligns with the full moon day of Thinlā, the second month in the lunar Nepal Era calendar (November/December). The festival symbolizes the conclusion of the rice harvest and involves the preparation and consumption of yomari, a sweet rice flour delicacy.

    Udhauli Parva is a festival observed by the Kirat community, expressing gratitude to nature for a fruitful harvest. As part of the festivities, individuals from the hills migrate to lower regions to escape the harsh Himalayan winters.

    In observance of these celebrations, the Nepal Stock Exchange Limited (NEPSE) will be closed on Monday and Tuesday. Regular trading activities are set to resume on Wednesday, Poush 11, 2080, beginning at 11:00 AM.

    During this brief pause for celebration, we extend warm wishes to all, hoping for a joyous and harmonious holiday season. May the spirit of unity and celebration bring happiness and prosperity to all citizens of Nepal.
