Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights, celebrates the victory of good over evil, light over darkness, and knowledge over ignorance. The festival itself extends over five jubilant and celebrative days. It is marked by lines of lamps, fireworks and the exchange of sweets and gifts that all lend to the grandeur of this occasion.
