The festival of Diwali is a time for joyous celebrations and meeting friends and family. This year, Diwali is being celebrated on Saturday, November 14. Diwali or Deepavali is a festival on which people perform poojas, catch up with their relatives, celebrate with card parties and indulge in sweets treats. With diyas lighting up every home and markets bustling with people - this time everyone practicing social distancing amid the pandemic - it's a festival that brings people together.
