Holi

Holi phagwa

Holi colours the city

CBC News reports:

Revellers celebrating the Hindu festival of Holi in the Indian city of Mumbai have been warned not to waste drinking water for traditional rain dances or water fights.

Municipal officials in India’s financial capital issued the edict on Monday as a result of chronic water shortages in the city.



The call for restraint comes as much of the country celebrates Holi, or the Festival of Colours, the public holiday to mark the arrival of spring.

Rain dances?

A festival of colours
