Hyderabad police have implemented stringent measures for Holi festivities, including limitations on group gatherings, vehicle movements, and the throwing of colors without consent. These restrictions, which are in place from March 13 to March 15, also entail the shutdown of wine shops and bars on March 14. However, BJP MLA Raja Singh has strongly condemned these actions, denouncing them as biased and anti-Hindu. Singh has further accused the Congress-led government of exerting undue influence on the police force to curb traditional Hindu celebrations. The clash between the police regulations and political opposition underscores the tensions surrounding cultural and religious practices during the festive season.
