Diwali Festival
There are many festivals which
the Hindu celebrate in India. Diwali is one of them. It is a festival of
lights, and joy.
Houses, shops and all other
buildings are decorated with the lamps at night. Almost everyone in India
celebrates this festival.
The people whitewash and paint
their homes before Deepawali. They wear new clothes and buy new utensils.
Children are thrilled with lights, crackers and sweets. The homes are lighted
and decorated and people exchange sweets, and gifts.
At night people worship Laxmi,
the goddess of wealth. Shop-keepers begin new account books on this day.
On this day God Rama returned to
Ayodhya after fourteen years of exile. The people of Ayodhya were very happy.
Diwali is indeed a beautiful
festival which brings light and joy in all the homes and hearts.
