The Hindu festival is celebrated across the country with great pomp and enthusiasm. With the smell of gulaal in the air and hugs everywhere, people every year look forward to the festival of colours. Holi is indeed a perfect example of brotherhood and togetherness.
The festival of colours marks the victory of good over evil. According to Hindu mythology, demon king Hiranyakashipu, took the help of his sister Holika, who had a magic cloak that protected her from fire, to kill his son Prahlad. Little Prahlad was a devoted worshiper of Lord Vishnu, which irked his father. While Holika was burnt to death after sitting on fire with Prahlad, the latter came out unharmed.
