Diwali, also known as the Festival of Lights, is one of the most important Hindu festivals. It symbolizes the victory of light over darkness and good over evil. Homes are decorated with diyas and rangoli, people wear new clothes, exchange sweets, and burst crackers. The festival also marks Lord Rama’s return to Ayodhya after defeating Ravana, and Goddess Lakshmi is worshipped for prosperity and wealth.
