Diwali gained significance when it got attached to the idea that Lord Ram returned from exile after killing Ravana. Earlier it was just celebrated as a harvest festival where farmers lighted lamp to thank the sun. Every religion added its own belief with Diwali. From Bengal’s Kali Puja to global Diwali parades in London and Toronto, the festival evolved — from fields to mythology, from oil lamps to fairy lights. Palki Sharma brings you the story of Diwali.
