No change to Nov 10 as Diwali holiday, minister says

Minister of Public Security Khemraj Ramjattan maintained yesterday that the gazetted date of the Diwali holiday this year remains November 10 and there will be no consideration for changes.

This is against the backdrop of the Guyana Hindu Dharmic Sabha (GHDS) insisting that the date is November 11, while another organisation, the Veerat Sabha, puts the date as November 10.

When Stabroek News contacted Ramjattan yesterday, he said he had received a letter of complaint from the Veerat Sabha,
