Washington [US], November 14 (ANI): US President-elect Joe Biden on Saturday extended his wishes on the occasion of Diwali.
"To the millions of Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, and Buddhists celebrating the Festival of Lights,
@DrBiden and I send our best wishes for a #HappyDiwali. May your new year be filled with hope, happiness, and prosperity. Sal Mubarak," Biden wrote on Twitter.

It is believed that on this day Lord Rama (the seventh incarnation of Lord Vishnu) returned from a 14-year-long exile, during which he fought and won a battle against the demon king Ravana.
People across India and around the world celebrate the festival by decorating their houses, exchanging gifts, and offering prayers in order to commemorate the "victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance". (ANI)
