YSRCP president and leader of opposition YS Jagan has conveyed his wishes to all the Telugu people on account of Holi festival. Today being Holi, the festival of colours, YS Jagan shared his message on Twitter and suggested everybody to celebrate it with environment-friendly, non-toxic and organic colours. Holi is celebrated as a symbol of the defeat of evil, as this was the day when mythological demon Holika was killed by fire when she tried to kill Prahlad, the son of yet another demon, brother of Holika and father of Prahlad, Hiranyakashipu. People celebrate it by applying beautiful colours to one another. But toxic colours are coming into the market, being used by people, ultimately reaching the ground water table, polluting it. In light of this, YS Jagan has considered it important that everybody contributed their part for preserving the environment. So he lay stress on it in his tweet.
