The BJP leaders and workers across Bihar on Saturday celebrated Holi -- two days beforehand -- following the party's landslide victory in assembly polls in the neighbouring Uttar Pradesh.

Hundreds of Bharatiya Janata Party leaders and workers took to the streets all over Bihar to play with colours, expressing their happiness.

Senior BJP leaders in the state Prem Kumar, Sushil Kumar Modi, Manngal Pandey termed the party's victory "historic".

The upbeat leaders and workers smeared colours on one another, danced under coloured sprinklers and sang folk songs, BJP leader Nitin Navin said.

The celebrations were seen throughout the state in Patna, Gaya, Muzaffarpur, Bhagalpur, Darbhanga, Jehanabadd, Aurangabad, Madhubani, Sasaram, Purnea, Madhepura and other districts.

 

At some places they also burst firecrackers and danced outside party offices distributing sweets among people.
