Holi 2024, the vibrant "festival of colours," took place on March 25th, bringing a wave of joy and merriment across India. The two-day celebration began with Holika Dahan on March 24th, where bonfires were lit to symbolize the triumph of good over evil.
This year's Holi held special significance due to a rare celestial event-a lunar eclipse that hadn't occurred in a century and coincided with the festival!
In this situation, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other prominent leaders extended greetings to the nation. PM Modi posted in his official x, 'Many happy Holi wishes to all my family members of the country. May this traditional festival decorated with colours of affection and harmony bring new energy and new enthusiasm into the lives of all of you.'
