Lucknow: Hindus and Muslims celebrated Holi together by taking out the decades-old procession 'Holi Baraat' -- to send out a message of peace and brotherhood on Sunday.
Accompanied by decorated horse chariots, the revellers danced to the beats of drums amidst ecstatic shouts of 'Holi Hai!'
Muslims in the Chowk locality traditionally make a stockpile of rose petals and garlands on Holi eve. They shower the flowers on Hindus as they come out for the Holi Baraat.
The procession starts from the Koneshwar Temple passes through various localities of Old Lucknow as more and more people join the festivities.
