New Year’s Eve: Many prefer house parties
The Hindu
Some are heading out to the outskirts
As yet another pandemic-hit year comes to an end, on the throes of threats of a third wave of COVID-19 infections, Bengalureans are preparing to celebrate New Year’s Eve in the new way they have learnt to from the previous year – amidst fear and restrictions.
With the night curfew in place, house parties, or quick trips to farm houses and resorts on the outskirts of the city or neighbouring districts and States have become the way to usher in the new year.
A final year PG student, Harshita, said there was no use heading to popular destinations in the city due to the night curfew, which would require them to go there and return early. “The only option is a home party,” she said.
