Widows from the various shleter homes gather at the Gopinath Temple in Vrindavan to celebrate the lasting colours of Holi since 2013. Here are all teh details about this bitter sweet celebration.
At least 119 Govindas were injured in Mumbai and 14 in neighbouring Thane on Saturday during dahi-handi celebrations, officials said, even as the events to mark the birth of Lord Krishna remained low key in several areas. Most of the Govindas were injured as their human pyramids, to break the dahi-handi or curd pitcher, fell, a BMC official said.
The usual fervour associated with the festival was missing this year as several dahi handi mandals and organisers of events decided to keep the celebrations low-key, to express solidarity with the people affected by the devastating floods.
