JOHOR BARU: The usual festive atmosphere leading to the Deepavali celebration in downtown Johor Baru is expected to be muted this year.

This is because the popular Deepavali bazaar at Jalan Ungku Puan that draws a large crowd every year will not be held this time around to contain the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic.
