Wishing you a happy Holi, dear readers

Vrindavan, 14 March 2014:

This is a photograph of a folk dancer with the Vrindavan widows, who were banished by their families and abandoned at the temple town where Krishna was born. Many of them lived bleak lives, clad in white.

Sulabh, an NGO, now organises celebrations at the century-old Meera Sahbhagini Ashram to literally add colour to their lives, if only just for Holi.

Here’s wishing you a happy Holi, dear readers. Make sure you’re pink and green and absolutely happy this Friday!
