Dalits and all the Backward Castes should absolutely Boycott so-called obscene Hindu festival called Holi. The purpose of Holi, indirectly, is concerned with killing of Hiranyakashyap. The important elements of the festival of Holi is to shower abuses on people and other vulgarities are observed Dirt, mud etc. is smeared. The most important aspect of Holi is abusing the people. This goes on from about 15 days before the festival begins and goes on till the culmination of atrocities on the second days of holi. These we see in the form of sprinkling coloured water on each other, dry colours in the form of gulal and distributing sweets, and indulging in intoxicants like liquor and bhang, (i.e. cannabis indica) and gambling in many ways.
