ECO-FRIENDLY HOLI CELEBRATIONS AT PARAS INDIA
Using the festival of colours to brighten up the lives of kids, PARAS INDIA organized Holi Celebrations among the communities across its regional centres. The kids got a chance to express their thoughts and feelings on canvas, by medium of a set of crayons to the kids as they painted a smorgasbord of colours and images depicting what Holi means to them.
Our annual Holi celebrations are not just a cultural festival but a reminder to lead sustainable lives in our capacity. PARAS has always emphasized the need for changing our lifestyles in accordance with the changing climatic needs. We, therefore, promote eco-friendly Holi celebrations using organic colours, saving waters and awaring people about the harmful use of synthetic colours on the animals. We took the pledge of a happy and safe Holi.
