Diwali Crackers

Diwali (Deepavalli) is a 'festival of lights' celebrated with loads of fun, joy and enthusiasm. Every year Diwali arrives in all its intensity and sparkle. The festival reminds us of the brilliant display of the colorful fireworks and crackers, which explode in the dark nights. Children and youth eagerly wait for the arrival of the festival. The word 'Deepavali' in Sanskrit means 'rows of lamps'. Diyas are lit in order to drive away the shadows of 'evil spirits'. Diwali is celebrated for five successive days in the month of October/ November. The festival begins with Dhan Trayodashi (Dhanteras), Narak Chaturdashi (Chhoti Diwali), Badi Diwali, Govardhan Pooja and Bhai Dooj. All wear new clothes, share sweets, light fireworks, and exchange gifts. The festival is celebrated on Amavasya (new moon day) of the Karthik month of the Hindu calendar. People of all the age groups (from young to old) have fascination for crackers. Fireworks add to the sparkling festivity and lights up the sky at night. Their sparkle is a visual delight. Despite a growing anti-cracker campaign, there is no downslide in its popularity. Phuljhari, Anar, chakra, and other ear deafening bombs are burst during the festival.
