Answer: Nepal
Notes: Nepal celebrated "Ghode Jatra", the Horse Racing Day, with a special ceremony at the Army Pavilion in Kathmandu. The Nepal Army Cavalry organizes the festival annually, attended by the President, Vice President, Prime Minister, and other officials. The festival falls on Chaitra Krishna Aunsi, the last month of the Nepali Bikram Sambat calendar. It commemorates the death of the demon Tundi, who terrorized Tundikhel, and was believed to be trampled by horses. King Pratap Malla (787 BCE) started the horse procession in Kathmandu, later spreading to Patan and Bhaktapur. Farmers sow beans and cucumbers to mark the festival and welcome the Nepali New Year.
