The longest festival of Nepal, Rato Machindranath Festival, was postponed due to the lockdown imposed on coronavirus pandemic. Rato Machindranath is also said as the 'God of Rain' and both Hindus and Buddhists worship the Machindranath in hope of good rain to prevent drought during the rice plantation season.
