Georgetown : Phagwah (Holi), the Spring Festival or the Festival of colours is a most auspicious time on the Hindu calendar. It signifies new beginnings, fresh starts and that there are better and brighter times ahead.
The Alliance for change in their message says” Phagwah or Holi reminds us that good will triumph over evil and that no matter how dark and depressing the present may be,truth and virtue will lead us to a better tomorrow.The story of Prince Prahalad should be a source of strength for all, especially his ability to confront challenges.
The Festival of Holi brings together Guyanese from all walks of life for a joyous and colourful celebration. It is a time for the sharing of joy, friendship and understanding.
This year, as we celebrate Phagwahby colouring each other indiverse colours, let us also celebrate the diversity of Guyana’s rich heritage and culture.
A Happy Phagwah to all Guyanese.”
