The Festivals of Light- On the Occasion of Deepaavli

 

The EBSB club of the NSS Training College Ottapalam prepared a video presentation on the festival of lights. As part of the programs conducted for the November, a presentation including different festivals in India were the 'diyas' (mud lamps) are lighted are introduced. The presentation included Diwali, which was on November 14th which is celebrated all over India and also the 'Karthika Vilak' celebrated on November 29th by the people in Kerala, Tamilnadu and associated regions. The presentation included the history, myth and the speciality of these festivals.  The presentation was very informative and it also helped to realise the similarity in the festivals celebrated in different part of our country. The festivals are always a celebration for Indian people. Since the pandemic situations are not allowing us to do what we usually do. We are trying to enjoy and embrace the best from the current situation. This video of sharing the culture is actually a good example for this.
