Chalo Jalayen Deep Wahan

“Chalo Jalayen Deep wahan

Jahan Abhee bhee Andhera hai”
Deepavali is the time to reach out to the underpriviledged and helping them to enlighten their lives. Deepavali also brings in joy and gaity. However, the joy of sharing and giving is one that is cherished during this festival. The garlands of lights symbolises the sharing. Sharing with friends and family is just the beginning and we need to look beyond to the people who need caring, affection and love. Reaching out to them will be the real Deepavali.
