KARACHI:
Screams of joy and laughter echoed through the Lakshmi Narayan Temple as the colours of Holi consumed those within.


Pakistan Hindu Seva Welfare Trust president Sanjesh Sunny Dhanja was happy to see the way the celebrations had transcended religion and had become an event for the whole community. “We made it very clear that everyone is invited, regardless of their religion, and it makes me happy to see how people responded.”

However, the recent incident in Larkana did seem to be hanging over those present, with Dhanja condemning those involved in the incident. “The government needs to take strict action against them so that an example can be made out of them.” Even tourists decided to join in the celebrations. “The media should propagate this side of Karachi,” suggested German tourist Juergen.

May our community have the best of times and peace to them all.

Good to see, especially since the dreadful event in Larkana.
