hey here is your answer
Diwali or Deepavali, also known as the festival of lights, is a major festival in India and is celebrated with great enthusiasm and fervour. Celebrated on the 14th day of the Kartik month as per the Hindu Lunar calendar, it is believed that on this day Lord Rama returned to Ayodhya after an exile of 14 years. The people of Ayodhya celebrated the joyous occasion of the return of their favourite Lord by cleaning their house, distributing sweets and lighting the houses with earthen diyas. Thus the name Deepavali, where Deep means earthen lamps and avali means a string. Over the years, firecrackers were also included in the celebrations.
