Diwali or Deepavali is the festival of lights celebrated by people of various faiths including Hindu, Jain, Sikhs and Buddhist with great pomp in India. This festival holds immense significance in Indian culture and history, usually falls in the month of October or November, depending on the lunar calendar. The festival of Diwali transcends the borders, religions and communities and its significance varies from region to region or community or community, yet essence remains the same–the victory of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance and good over evil.

Diwali is not just a festival; it is a time when the threads of social bonds are intricately woven. Families gather under one roof for the celebration, and neighbours open their doors to each other, sharing sweets and bonds that span generations. In one corner of the country, families prepare for the grandeur of Goddess Lakshmi’s arrival, offering prayers to prosperity and wealth. In other, the effigies of demon king Ravana are set ablaze, symbolising the triumph of good over evil.

In the heart of autumn, when the air turns crisp and night grows longer, a vibrant and magical festival emerges to light-up the Indian subcontinent. From the lighting of lamps to exchange of gifts, Diwali weaves together a rich tapestry of customs that reflect the unity in India’s diversity.
