In Kathmandu, Holi celebration is becoming more civilised, police say

Police say they didn’t come across any untoward incidents during the festival in the Valley.

Until a few years ago, during Fagu Purnima (Holi), people used to throw colours and balloons filled with dirty water on others without their consent. Women would be the main target, so they would refrain from going to colleges and offices during days before the festival.
