Good wishes from the CM. But I hope the administration also focuses on ensuring safe celebrations - controlling noise pollution and preventing wasteful use of water during the festival. The spirit of Holi is also about responsibility.

Holi Milan at the party office is a nice gesture. Festivals should bring everyone together, beyond politics. The message of 'Sabka Saath' is important, but it must be practiced every day, not just during festivals. Happy Holi to all!

Bura na mano, Holi hai! 🎉 The CM is right about it being an expression of folk culture. From the Holika Dahan to playing with natural colors, every ritual has meaning. Let's keep the celebrations organic and respectful.

Extending greetings is fine, but I wish there was more focus on promoting eco-friendly Holi. Our rivers suffer so much after the festival. Can our leaders also champion a 'Green Holi' initiative? That would be a real service.
