Why is diwalyi selabrated?

Diwali, also known as the Festival of Lights, is celebrated primarily in India and by Hindus around the world to mark the victory of light over darkness and good over evil. It commemorates the return of Lord Rama to his kingdom after defeating the demon king Ravana, as well as the goddess Lakshmi's annual visit to bless homes with prosperity and wealth. The festival includes lighting oil lamps, decorating homes, exchanging gifts, and enjoying festive meals. Diwali fosters a spirit of joy, unity, and renewal among families and communities.
