Deepawali is the biggest and the brightest festival of India. It's the festival of lights (deep = light and avali = a row of lights) Diwali is separated by a different tradition, but what remains true and constant is the celebration of life, its enjoyment and goodness.
 
Divali is celebrated because on this day Shri Ram Killed Ravan.
Here Ram is the symbol of truth and Ravam is the symbol of Untruth.
 
The name "Diwali" is a contraction of word "Deepawali", which means "row of lamps". Diwali commemorates the return of Lord Rama to his kingdom Ayodhya, along with his wife Sita and brother Lakshmana, after completing his 14-years exile. People of Ayodhya welcomed their king by illuminating the kingdom with clay diyas. Diwali is celebrated after twenty days of Dussehra festival which signify the triumph of good over evil. On Dussehra lord Rama killed demon-king Ravana who had abducted his wife Sita. It is called as festival of lights. People worship lord laxhmi. On this day every one enjoy at home, prepare sweet dishes and have lot of fun.
