Happy Deepavali

Best Wishes for a Happy Deepavali.

In Southern part of India Deepavali celebrated as Narakachathurdasi to commemorate “Victory over evil” for killing of demon King Narakasura ruler of kingdom of Pragjothisha in Assam by Sri Krishna with the help of his consort Sathyabhama. It is a big festival in Tamil Nadu. The event is celebrated with early morning oil bath, wearing new dresses, lighting of lamps and pooja. Burning fire crakers and distribution of sweets amongst friends and relatives have become a must.
