General Announcements

Diwali 2023, the festival of lights, was celebrated on Sunday. Hindus across the country celebrate this festival with joy and enthusiasm. It holds great significance as it symbolises the triumph of light over darkness. People decorate their homes, light diyas, exchange gifts, and worship deities such as Goddess Laxmi and Lord Ganesha. The festival is celebrated for five days, with each day having its own rituals and traditions.
