Nitin Patel said the government was thinking about Navratri
Uncertainty has prevailed over the Navratri festival, which has become known as the world's longest dance festival due to the Koro epidemic.
The state government has not yet decided on the planning of Navratri in Gujarat starting October 17. However, the government is trying to make a decision by thinking at the right time. Speaking to reporters at a program in Rupal, Deputy Chief Minister Nitin Patel said, "Khelaiya is waiting for Navratri."
The government will consider this even when people are eager to play Navratri even among the corona. Gujarat's Garba has a prominent identity in the world but it is necessary to stop the transmission of corona in the state at a time when there is a big threat due to corona, so the government will take a decision after considering all aspects. The government is considering giving concessions in Navratri as per the guideline of Kovid 19.
