Its criminal to destroy the farmers months of hard work and sweat for ones pleasure. What have we come to.

This is certainly not right as it’s not our culture or custom. It’s not tomatino festival, Its Holi! It could have fed many a poor family. Wrong move , shameful.

Very bad. Shd have been given to street animals as food instead. They sleep hungry
And this is food wastage? Rachana A Vaidya (@Dstreetwinners) March 21, 2019
In stead of banning PUBG game. Ban these things. India is always known for respecting the food not wasting like this. And moreover holi is never celebrated with tomatoes
