Holi festivities already peaking across Braj region

MATHURA: (Feb 25) Holi celebrations are in full swing across the Braj region - — Mathura, Vrindavan, Barsana, Nandgaon, Gokul, Mahavan, and Baldev – even before the festival formally begins elsewhere in the country.

Devotees from across India and abroad are celebrating the love of Radha and Krishna.

Barsana and Nandgaon are witnessing the traditional Lathmar Holi, with revellers visiting each other's towns on Phalgun Shukla Navami and Dashami, on Wednesday and Thursday.
