Holi is a very popular Hindu festival in India representing the arrival of spring and the triumph of good over evil. It is celebrated with colours as a day to spread happiness and love. In some parts of the country Holi is also celebrated as thanksgiving for a bountiful harvest.

“As diasporic Indians, we have a proud history of celebrating our varied religious, ethnic and linguistic backgrounds; we are proud of our ethos of diversity and inclusiveness. We are also committed to promoting inter-faith camaraderie and dialogue within our communities, fostering social resilience and celebrating the Australian ethos of multiculturalism,” a statement released by Hindus for Human Rights – ANZ said.

The organisations have extended their invitation to anyone with “an interest in cross-cultural engagement” to participate.

“Participation in our event – will help us greatly in promoting social harmony within our communities and reclaim our cherished ethos of diversity and inclusiveness,” the press statement added.
