Hey mate!
Here's your answer!!
Among all the festivals, my favourite festival is of course Diwali. It is celebrated just before the setting in of winter season, at the end of October or many a times in thebeginning of November. According to the Hindu calendar, Diwali is celebrated on the 15th of the month of Kartik- when the weather is pleasant—being neither too hot nor too cold. The festival is celebrated in the joyous memory of Ramchandra’s return to Ayodhya after an exile of 14 years. The people of Ayodhya had lit ‘diyas’ using ghee to express their infinite joy on the return of their beloved Ram. One can imagine the entire city being lit up on a moonless night with strings of ‘deepaks’ and candles. That was the first Diwali to be celebrated. Since then, Diwali is celebrated to commensurate the return of Ram—the ideal man of our civilization. Goddess Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth too is worshipped on this day.
Hope it helps you!

Diwali
Diwali symbolizes the great cultural heritage of the Hindus. Diwali means a line of lamps. This age old festival of India is celebrated on the new moon day { Amavasya } of the Marathi month, Kartik. The decorative lamps hanged outside the houses look beautiful in the darkness of new moon day.
Evan the stars appear dim in front of these lamps. Diwali is not a one day festival, It is a collective festival of 4 - 5 days. The first day is called as Dhantrayodashi. Second day is known as Narak Chaturdashi. Next day is the main day of Diwali , called as Laxmi Pujan.
Though this festival lasts for 4 to 5 days, it's preparations start long before. People clean their houses, and renew them. This festival reminds us about our glorious past. We can turn the darkness of the new moon day into full moon day by illuminating the lights.
So, similarly , We should pray to God to show us the right path and take us from the darkness towards the light of the knowledge.
Thanks !
