before part 2, here is a request

Hi! Kzk fans,

thanks for the warm responses for my story part 1. As, many of you guys know, I'm not from India, but, from Nepal, but both countires are next to each other, so it's obvibious that, the people of Nepal, they can speak hindi as well. And the second thing is most of the tradition things in Nepal are similar to India, but, I don;t know what are the occasssions follow after each one and right now I'm in the U.S., so I would like to request, if someone in this post, can provide me all the date of the occassions from the top to the bottom like Ganapati pooja, holi, dasera, baisakhi, etc. I'm requesting these things as, to move on my stores, I need to show some of the occassions, and I don;t want to put the names of the occassions in the wrong place. so, can  any one provide me all the dates  of the festivals that are celebrated in India and in the serial order of the festivals.

Hi!

aashi, you and all the members for this forums are too cool and too nice. you know guys, before, coming to the U.S., I've been vistired to some parts of India like Bihar, Sai temple in Banglore, Mumbai, Goa, Sri Tirumala Tirupati and few other parts. If you guys know, Nepal is also a Hindu nation, and like India we respect all the religioins like Muslim, Sikh and others. One funniest thing is since from my childooh, I am so crazy about hindi movies and songs than my own country movies and songs.
