Diwali or the festival of lights is celebrated with much pomp and show in various regions across India. The name 'Deepavali' literally means an 'array of lights'; the festival marks the triumph of good over evil. When the diyas are alighted their glow illuminates even the darkest of nights which signifies the enlightenment of soul and the triumph of good over evil. It is about overcoming the darkness of ignorance and propagating the light of knowledge.
