The editor and staff at Highway Mail wish all those who celebrate a Happy Diwali.
WHILE dressed in vibrant and traditional attire and enjoying feasts of many kinds, the celebration of Diwali is a major part of the Hindu faith which brings friends and families together.
This year, Diwali, also known as The Festival of Lights, will be celebrated on Sunday, November 12.

The day is synonymous with lights and candles which symbolise an inner illumination protecting from the darkness without, or the ultimate triumph of good over evil, or knowledge becoming victorious over ignorance.
The celebrations are associated with the goddess of prosperity, Lakshmi, and the god of wisdom, Ganesha.
