Holi Celebrations Highlights: India revels in riot of colours
The festival of Holi is being celebrated with great enthusiasm across India with everyone joining in the revelry and coming out to paint the streets (and people) in vibrant colours. Meanwhile, in an unfortunate incident in the morning, 14 priests, including 'sevaks', were injured in a fire that broke out in the Mahakal Temple in Ujjain in Madhya Pradesh during 'bhasma aarti' after gulal was thrown as part of a ritual in Holi.
