Diwali, also known as The Festival of Lights, is one of the major annual festivals celebrated by Hindus, Jains, Sikhs and some Buddhists. The multi-day celebration falls between mid-October and mid-November each year and is a time to celebrate the triumph of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, and good over evil.
