Answer:
iwali or Deepawali is known as the 'Festival of Lights' and is one of the most important Hindu festivals in India. Festival of Lights is celebrated to mark the return of Lord Ram to Ayodhya along with Devi Sita and brother Lakshman after 14 years of exile (vanvaas).
Diwali or Deepawali essentially means the Awareness of the Inner Light. In a way, it is the celebration of the awakening and awareness of the Inner Light which has the power to outshine the darkness.
On this day, people decorate their home with diyas, rangolis and decorative lights, wear new clothes, exchange sweets and gifts with each other, burn crackers and in the evening perform, Lakshmi Pujan. Deepawali is celebrated exactly after ten-days of Dussehra or Vijaya Dashami.
Burning firecrackers causes health hazards because of the air pollution caused by the smoke of firecrackers. Pollution is a big issue of the present-day world and has many bad effects on the environment. So, all we can do is increase self-awareness and try to find more eco-friendly ways to celebrate our festivals.
Let’s celebrate Deepawali with lights and diyas and return to our traditional ways to celebrate the auspicious day.
