According to the Bible, Jesus Christ was crucified by the Roman rulers. It is believed that two days after His death, on a Sunday, Jesus
rose from the dead. Therefore, the Sunday following Good Friday is celebrated as Easter.
Christians celebrate this festival as a symbol of new hope in life. In some places, it is also known as Palm Sunday.
Significance of Easter:
On Good Friday, Jesus Christ was crucified. Then, on the following Sunday, He rose again. This day is known as Easter. In Christianity, Easter is celebrated as the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It symbolizes the victory of life over death, freedom from sins, and hope for a new life.
On Easter, people go to church to pray and greet each other. They wear new clothes and share sweets. People also decorate eggs on Easter, as eggs symbolize life. Thus, decorating eggs is a common tradition on this day.
