Diwali is a festival of light and is celebrated during the Hindu lunisolar month Kartika. The festival of lights signifies peace and joy, the victory of good over evil, and light over darkness.
During this festival, people decorate every corner of house with lights, lamps, diyas, flowers, rangoli, and candles. Families also perform Lakshmi Puja and pray to the Goddess of wealth to bless them with health, wealth, and prosperity.
