Holi Is Part Of This Land Long Before Pakistan Came Into Being

The entire debate around whether Pakistani should celebrate Holi or not has kickstarted a debate and it has emerged that the celebration itself is an integral part of this soil.

Twitter in particular is where many shared the origins of the celebration and how it is fundamentally a part of our culture and history. To reduce it to a mere 'fun' activity that needs to be banned as per the HEC has been rendered irrelevant and the HEC has rectified its decision to ban it.

While some described it as a cultural celebration, others traced its origins to Multan and there was even a thread on how entrenched the event was in our literature, traditions and history.
