Nadia Students Create Natural Holi Colors, Ditching Market Adulteration

• Students of Talpukur GSFP Primary School in Nadia are making eco-friendly herbal abir for Holi 2026.
• The initiative, led by environmentalist Shailen Chandi, teaches children to create natural colors from marigold, beetroot, and Aparajita flowers.
• Children learn to dry, powder flowers, and extract colors, ensuring skin-safe and environment-friendly abir.
• This practical education fosters environmental awareness and allows students to celebrate Holi with self-made, chemical-free colors.
• The project in Barjiyakur, Shantipur, has been widely praised for promoting natural dyes over adulterated market products.
