Children were allowed to enter the Banke Bihari temple. Children throwed color powder to the crowd when believer were offered their sacrifice in the temple. Some of the children were being frightened by the colors powder but some of them enjoyed the color war in the street. Kid tried to protect themself by cloth but remain interested to the environment.

Story

When people were enjoying the happiness of Holi Festival, I was surprisingly noticed that children were directly or indirectly being harm. In the Banke Bihari temple, children were allowed to enter without safety and health consideration. Heavy congested crowd and pollution due the the color powder caused poor quality of air inside the temple. Color powder is harmful to human respiration especially to the children. Children learned to throw color powder to others but without being told or educated the real meaning behind these culture. The color powder fight between the children may turn into a type of violance that can physically hurt people. Child’s emotional, psychological or social well-being and sense of worth to attend the event is continually battered year after years.
