Diwali holds deep meaning, marking Lord Rama’s return to Ayodhya after years of exile and his ultimate victory over the demon king Ravana.

In honor of Diwali, people across India prepare their homes by cleaning and decorating with glowing diyas, flickering candles, and colorful rangolis, filling every corner with positivity, good fortune, and hope for prosperity in the year ahead.
