Answer:The year 2020 started on a gloomy note, with an unknown virus (SARS-CoV-2) spreading through nations like wildfire, bringing the whole world to a standstill. People isolated themselves inside their homes and lived in anxiety and uncertainty for the longest time. While the fight with the virus is far from over, we all have learned to live with it and are trying to resume our pre pandemic lives in the new normal. But how will COVID impact our favourite Indian festival? Will it be bright as always or flicker due to the pandemic? Let’s find out
Wearing the finest of clothes, hopping from one Diwali party to another, personally delivering Diwali greetings to relatives and friends, getting stuck for hours in traffic with the car full of gifts and goodies has been a common Diwali feeling for the past many years. But this year will be different.
While parties haven’t died down, their grandness has to some extent. Many event planners shared that while some people are still hosting parties, the guest list has been trimmed considerably. People are inviting selected few for Diwali parties and are mostly sending Diwali greetings through courier.
There are people who are trying to retain some sense of celebratory spirit during this time of the year. 36-year-old Prapti Sharma shares how she always had a packed schedule during Diwali but this Diwali is not the same, “I was feeling so somber that I decided to invite two friends over to spend the week with me. Since I stay alone and they stay alone too, we have decided to spend the Diwali week together.”
30-year-old Sarvjeet Kaur doesn’t want to miss the Diwali fun and is sticking to virtual card parties. “My mother is 83 years old and a diabetic. For her sake, I have been putting down Diwali party invitations but there are other friends like me who are being cautious and we have started playing cards online.”
Many cities have banned use of firecrackers owing to the increasing levels of air pollution, because the doctors fear that the combined effect of COVID and air pollution can spell havoc for the public. Many people have decided to keep it low key, worried about their elderly parents or young children. While in the given conditions, this may not be all wrong, there are ways we can still celebrate the festival of lights and wish for prosperity and happiness all around the world.
