Eid-ul-Fitr
Eid-ul-Fitr is the biggest festival of Muslims. It is celebrated across the world with a lot of fervor, more so because it is celebrated after the holy month of Ramadan, where followers of Islam fast for 30 days where they do not eat or drink during the day, but only eat twice during Sehri, which is right before sunrise, and Iftaar which is right after sunset. During the month of Ramadhan, Muslims also do charity and follow a lot of discipline. After 30 days, according to the sighting of the moon, known as Chand Raat, Eid is celebrated the next day. On the day of Eid, people go to Eidgaah to pray, make sweets like Sevaiyaan, (giving the name "Meethi Eid" to this festival") and give Eidi to little ones. At several places Eid Fairs are held where people especially children do a lot of stall hopping. Eid-ul-Fitr is a festival of happiness, joy and good will.

Good Friday and Easter
Easter is a festival celebrated by Christians all across the world. Even in India, the followers of Christianity celebrated this festival. This day marks the resurrection of Lord Jesus after three days of his crucifixion. According to history, Jesus Christ had a huge followership among people. Fearing this, the royals arrested him on various charges and gave him an execution sentence. Jesus Christ was crucified on a Friday known as Good Friday or Black Friday. The Following Sunday, he appeared in front of his followers, which is why this day is celebrated as Easter. On Good Friday people wear black clothes and go to churches to pay their respect and prayers, and on Easter Sunday they decorate eggs and Easter Bunnies and celebrate Jesus's resurrection.

Baisakhi
Baisakhi or Vaisakhi, the harvest festival, is observed in most of India to mark the start of the new spring season. Baisakhi is particularly significant in Punjab and Haryana due to the large Sikh population, which celebrates the festival with zeal and enthusiasm. The festival became closely associated with Sikhism at the end of the 17th century, when Guru Gobind Singh, the Sikh leader, chose the date of the festival to establish the Khalsa Panth. ‘Rongali Bihu’ in Assam, ‘Naba Barsha’ in West Bengal, ‘Vaishakha’ in Bihar, ‘Vishu’ in Kerala, and ‘Puthandu’ in Tamil Nadu are some of the names given to the festival of Baisakhi. This day is commemorated in Punjab as the birthday of Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh Guru.
