Sorry to say but I can give you content (body) of the letter.

The Holi is a festival of colours, joys and pleasures. Preparations are made days ahead of the actual day. Colours are bought, they can be dry or in liquid form. All types of colours are purchased in bulk. Our country is a land of festivals. Here all festivals are celebrated with a great pomp and show. They are enjoyed in every nook and corner of India. Whether it is a town or a village, the enthusiasm of the festival never gets damp. It rather ceremonised with full gusto and force.

The importance of this particular festival i.e Holi is too great to be explained in a few lines. It is said that there was one demon king by the name of Hirnakashyap. But an angel boy, Prahalad was born to him. The cruel king was at war with his son Prahalad, He wanted to get rid of him, so he requested his sister Holika to finish the boy. Holika was fire proof. She had been blessed with a boon of this nature. She sat in a pit of fire with Prahalad in her lap.Holika was burnt and the fire-god did not touch Prahalad. The story goes to prove that those who have full and firm faith in the Almighty got unharmed. No harm can befall them. It is a festival of amity, brotherhood and mutual love. It is above the barriers of caste,colour and creed. It develops communal harmony and national integration.It sprinkles peace and prosperity everywhere. It marks the advent of crop season. Pleasantness reigns everywhere.

Usually in towns and cities, people apply colours in each other faces and hug themselves and wish each other. Children play Holi using water, they fill water in water-shooter (Pichkari) and throw water balloons on each other.Village folks play Holi quite differently. They mix cow-dung,mud and kerosene oil and bathe people from the top of their houses.

This is the way of deriving pleasure.It is extremely bad and undesirable. Let us enjoy Holi in true national spirit, remembering always the message of friendship and brotherhood
