Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the occasion of Holi extended greetings to his fellow countrymen on Monday and wished that the festival infuses “new vigour and energy” in the lives of people. “Wishing you all a very happy Holi. This festival of joy, happiness, laughter and glee should infuse new vigour and new energy into everyone’s life,” Prime Minister Modi tweeted in Hindi.
