Holika Dahan is deeply rooted in Indian culture and tradition. The bonfire is believed to purify the environment, ward off negative energies. As per Hindu mythology, Holika Dahan commemorates the victory of good over evil. According to legend, Holika, the sister of the demon king Hiranyakashipu, attempted to kill Prahlad, a devoted follower of Lord Vishnu. However, Prahlad's unwavering faith in the divine protected him, and Holika was consumed by the flames instead. The burning of Holika's effigy symbolizes the triumph of virtue over vice and the destruction of evil forces.
