Answer:
which two Historical icons of India does the festival celebrate the return to?
In northern India, Diwali commemorates Prince Rama's triumphant return to the city of Ayodhya after 14 years of exile due to the plotting of his evil stepmother—and after a heroic rescue of his wife Sita, an incarnation of the goddess Lakshmi, who had been kidnapped by the rival king Ravana.

- They had to be in the forest for 14 years. This was ordered by Ram's father which he obeyed.
- After 14 years, when they returned, the people there celebrated their return as a huge festival.
- During that day the entire town was lighted up with diyas in order to signify their victory.
- The name of the festival is Diwali which is celebrated every year in India.
