Chinese 'Pichkaris' or Herbal Gulal: It's All About Celebrating Holi

In the past, widows living in the ashrams could have played Holi only with 'thakurji' (Lord Krishna). This year, the festival has a different hue altogether as they will enjoy among themselves. The widows of the holy town feel such celebrations would prove to be an unprecedented step towards ending social prejudice against them, he said. "In an effort to bring widows to mainstream and help their social assimilation, we have organised several events to encourage them to participate in Holi celebrations at Vrindavan," Pathak said. As widows do not play Holi traditionally in Vrindavan, the event this year may need some amount of change in the mindset of the society, he said.

The organisation has been providing facilities to all the widows in five government run shelter homes here, he said, adding, apart from giving them stipend, Sulabh was also arranging their food and healthcare facilities.
