Choti Holi 2023: The special time of the year is here. Every year Holi is celebrated with a whole lot of pomp and grandeur all over the country. Holi is celebrated by smearing gulal and colours on the faces of others. Holi brings with it the promise of a better tomorrow and the joy of the triumph of good over evil. Holi is celebrated with abundance of rituals observed in various parts of the country. While Varanasi celebrates Holi by mixing colour with ashes from the cremation ghats, Holika Dahan is celebrated in many parts of the country where people form huge heaps of unwanted items and put them on fire denoting the riddance of toxicity and making way for prosperity to enter.
Holika Dahan celebrates the triumph of good over evil. It is the time of the year when people in the neighbourhood gather around an empty space, collect all the things that they no longer need and put it on fire. As we gear up to celebrate Holika Dahan, let’s look at the dos and don’ts that we must remember at all times:
