The initiative of general public has also started to be seen in the streets and intersections which looked deserted during Dashain holiday.
Although it is rare for people to go out of the capital to celebrate Dashain this year due to Corona, number of vehicles on the road in a few days of Dashain was less than last year.
Similarly, bustle in Kathmandu has increased after those who went home to celebrate Dashain started returning. Pressure of vehicles entering Kathmandu has started increasing.
Even after the end of the Dashain holiday, process of receiving Tika of Dashain will continue till Kojagrat full moon.
