Assam and Nagaland Governor P B Acharya today greeted people on the eve of Holi, the festival of colours.
Holi celebrates the triumph of good over evil, bridges social gaps and renews relationships, the Governor said in a statement here.
"Holi may be celebrated by various names and people of different states might be following different traditions, but what makes the festival so unique and special is its spirit which remains the same throughout the country and even across the globe," he added.
The Governor also appealed to the people to celebrate the colourful festival in the spirit of amity and strengthen the bond of unity and integrity.
Keeping in view the forthcoming elections in Assam, he said voting is one of the biggest rights endowed on the people by the Constitution and as citizens of the biggest democracy, all eligible voters should exercise this right conscientiously without any fear or favour.
