After that, pujari  swings them as they are on a  decked palki. Women apply  colored powder to the idols while  they sing hymns and bhajans.   According to the tradition of  Dolyatra, Lord Krishna declared  his unwavering love for Radha on  this day. Love has many colors, and love  for one person is a medley of  them.  That's why the colorful powder is  an essential part of the  celebrations, just like in Holi.  The term "phagu" refers in Odia language. Applying phagu involves a ritual. Phagu is utilized as a sign of  respect for God and then family members'  photos of the departed family  members, and then applied others. Enjoy a beautiful, vibrant Holi with your loved ones.
