  1. Diwali is the sanctified festival of Hindus that is celebrated with the help of firecrackers, candles and sweets. The Indians commence the preparations before 2 months of the arrival of Diwali. The Diwali is the most significant festivals if compared to other festivals celebrated in India. The story behind the festival of Diwali is quite simple and easy and everyone knows the story of Rama and Ravana due to which this festival exists. The history of this incredible festival is related with the comeback of Ram, Sita and Laxman from the forests. When the king Ram returns back to his hometown "Ayodhya" with his wife Sita and his younger brother Laxman, the citizens of Ayodhya give a warm welcome to them by spreading the lights all over the Ayodhya. The reason of the happiness and excitement of people of Ayodhya is the victory of their king Ram who killed the wicked Ravan who kidnapped Sita due to his evil intentions. Also they celebrated the day of the comeback of Ram because of the fact that he returned back home after spending complete 14 years in the forest. Lord Rama fought a lot to get back his valuable wife in order to make her free from the bondages of Ravana. With the help of Sugriv, Vibhishan, Hanuman and the monkey soldiers, he fought against the whole force of Ravana and won the Lanka. Due to the divine powers of Hanuman, Sita was found in the country of Ravana. After the war gets over between the Ram and Ravana, Sita got her freedom. The credit of the defeat of the Ravan also goes to his brother Vibhishan who joined the forces of Rama as soon as he recognized the power of goodness. After destroying the existence of Ravana and all the evil power linked to him, he returned back to his kingdom "Ayodhya" gracefully. Everyone gave a very nice welcome to them by lighting the candles all over the Ayodhya so that there is no place of dark left. Bharat, the brother of Lord Rama who accepted to take the charge of his kingdom only for the time period till Ram is in the forest, gave back the charge of Ayodhya back to Ram. The people of the Ayodhya accepted the Lord Rama as their efficient King who is capable of handling the country. The amazing festival of Diwali signifies unity in diversity. It unites even those who haven't met for number of years and fill Diwali images the heart of everyone with affection, kindness and love.
