Kerala celebrates Easter

"I am a regular tippler and these 50 days is the only time during the year, when I forego liquor. I find it difficult every year to abstain from liquor but, as this time too, I came out successful and did not touch it. So I decided to start my session soon after breakfast and now waiting for my relatives to turn up. The session along with a game of cards will go on till late evening," said Jacob Punnen, an agriculturist in Kottayam.
