“Andhra Pradesh Governor Biswa Bhusan Harichandan has decided not to organise Holi celebrations at Andhra Pradesh Raj Bhavan in Vijayawada this year, due to rise in number of Covid-19 cases,” said a Raj Bhavan official.
Harichandan appealed to the people to stay at home and celebrate Holi following Covid guidelines.
He told people to maintain social distance, wear a mask, regularly wash hands with soap and use a sanitizer.
The Governor also appealed to all the eligible people to get vaccinated for Coronavirus as it helps in breaking the pandemic’s chain of infections.
