History of Holi
Holi is a festival that celebrated for centuries. A popular story is about the demon king Hiranyakashyap, who wanted everyone to worship him but his son Prahlad, refused for it and worshipped Lord Vishnu. When Hiranyakashyap came to know about it, he called his sister Holika and planned to punish his son. Holika sat on a bonfire with Prahlad to make him burn but she destroyed and Prahlad was saved.
This story symbolizes the victory of good over evil. Holi is the festival where people throw colored powder at each other, dance and enjoy food, bringing people together in joy and unity.
