------------------------------
The colourful festival of Holi
falls in February end or early March every year. The colourful festival bridges
the social gap and renews sweet relationships. On this day, people hug each
other and wish 'Happy Holi'.
Holi celebration begins with lighting up of
bonfire on the eve of Holi. People rub powder colours and throw various liquid
colours on each other. Shouting the
slogan “बुरा ना
मानो होली है” means don’t mind anything, today is HOLI. This custom
gives us chance to meet and hug our friends’ and new people. We tender apology
for the past misunderstandings if any and start cordial relations afresh. Hence
I am fond of it.
