Indien (Assam) : Feiertage, Schließung der Banken, Schulferien

Weltliche Feiertage : Chicago, Samstg, den 1. Mai 1886: 350 000 Arbeiter streiken für einen Acht-Stunden-Tag. Gewerbeindustrien wurden landesweit lahmgelegt. Die Polizei löste die Demonstrationen an jenem Montag auf. Am darauffolgenden Tag streikt Chicago immer noch. Als die Polizei den Protestmarsch auflösen wollte, explodierte eine Bombe. Es kostete zwölf Menschen das Leben, unter denen sieben Polizisten. Acht Anarchisten wurden verurteilt und hingerichtet. Im Jahre 1889 traf sich das Socialist International Movement in Paris und erklärte diesen Tag zum internationalen Tag der Arbeit . Die Soviets, wie auch die Nazis, folgen diesem Beispiel. In Frankreich, unter dem Regime von Vichy (1940-1944), wurde dieses Fest zum Labour Day umbenannt.

Weltliche Feiertage : Under the Mughals, agricultural taxes were collected according to the Hijri calendar. However, as the Hijri calendar is a lunar calendar, it does not coincide with the harvest. As a result, farmers were hard-pressed to pay taxes out of season. In order to streamline tax collection, the Mughal Emperor Akbar ordered a reform of the calendar. Accordingly, Fatehullah Shirazi, a renowned scholar and astronomer, formulated the Bangla year on the basis of the lunar Hijri and Bangla solar calendars. The new year subsequently became known as Bôngabdo or Bengali year

Buddhistisch : The annual festival of Raksha Bandhan, which is meant to commemorate the abiding ties between siblings of opposite sex, usually takes place in late August, and is marked by a very simple ceremony in which a woman ties a rakhi — which may be a colorful thread, a simple bracelet, or a decorative string — around the wrist of her brother(s). The word raksha signifies protection, and bandhan is an association signifying an enduring sort of bond; and so, when a woman ties a rakhi around the waist of her brother, she signifies her loving attachment to him. He, likewise, recognizes the special bonds between them, and by extending his wrist forward, he in fact extends the hand of his protection over her.
