Hindus in Pakistan’s biggest city Karachi celebrated Holi, the festival of colours, on March 13, in an annual ritual marking the beginning of spring. More than five hundred Hindus gathered in Karachi's Hindu temple of Shri Swaminarayan for the celebration. An ancient Hindu tradition, the annual festival represents a time of forgiveness, renewed friendship and the triumph of good over evil. Non-Muslims make up only about three percent of the 240 million population of Muslim-majority Pakistan.
