Other Hindus, such as Soumya Dasgupta, have opposed the celebration on the grounds that Western holidays like Halloween have "begun to adversely affect our indigenous festivals".
Umat Hindu lainnya, seperti Soumya Dasgupta, menentang perayaan tersebut dengan alasan bahwa hari libur Barat seperti Halloween telah "mulai mempengaruhi festival-festival adat kami."
