Sunny Skies on Holika Dahan and Holi

Holika Dahan will be observed on the night of March 3, 2026, followed by the festival of colours, Holi, on March 4, 2026, across India.

Holika Dahan marks the victory of good over evil, with people gathering around bonfires to perform rituals and sing traditional songs.

The heat from the fire is believed to help cleanse the surroundings by reducing germs and bacteria.

The vibrant colours used during Holi are traditionally made from turmeric, neem and flower petals, known for their natural and skin-friendly properties.

Celebrations with music and movement also help overcome seasonal fatigue.

Weather conditions are expected to remain mostly sunny and warm across the country, with a few areas seeing light showers. Stay hydrated and celebrate safely.
