Have a Happy & Safe Holi





Indians celebrate Holi by wishing their elders with a tilak on their forehead. Usually, gulaal is used for tilak but in order to make these colors more vibrant and shiny, crushed glass or a glossy metal is often mixed in Gulaal which can lead to major eye injuries, especially when applied on forehead. To add joy to the festivity, people smear colors on the faces of their dear ones. The adulteration is not just restricted to Gulaal but also with other colors popular among children like water colors, grease etc. So, it is advised to play carefully and try using organic or natural colors. Also, if possible wear sunglasses in order to avoid these colors to enter the eye.
