Diwali greetings

Dear Reader,

Diwali is celebrated by Hindus, Jains and Sikhs across the globe as the "Festival of Lights," where the lights or lamps signify victory of good over the evil within every human being.

On this auspicious occasion (irrespective of religion), I would like to wish you and your family a very happy Diwali. May this Diwali light the lamp of a race, which will lead you, India and all other countries towards a path of prosperity, happiness and peace.

So lets all celebrate this beginning with fun, music, drinks (but no drinking and driving), dance and light our way into a newer brighter future.

But please remember, no crackers please. Remember, your initiative will go a long way in saving the Earth and the especially the underprivileged children, who are forced to do child labour, and also loose their lives as a result of mishaps (The recent one in Bharatpur which killed 28 people including 12 children).

Celebrate this diwali with lamps and music. Enjoy!!!

Regards,

Sushant Kumar
