Diwali (or Deepavali, the "festival of lights") is an ancient Hindu festival celebrated in autumn (northern hemisphere) or spring (southern hemisphere) every year. Diwali is one of the largest and brightest festivals in India. The festival spiritually signifies the victory of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, good over evil, and hope over despair. Its celebration includes millions of lights shining on housetops, outside doors and windows, around temples and other buildings in the communities and countries where it is observed

Kali Puja Festival 2014

Kali Puja is a festival dedicated to the Hindu goddess Kali, celebrated on the diwali night, the new moon day of the Hindu month Kartik (October-November). While the rest of India worships goddess Lakshmi on Diwali, the Bengalis (also the Oriyas and Assamese of Eastern India) adore goddess Kali on this day.

The festival of Kali Puja is not an ancient one in Bengal and was practically unknown before the 18th century. It was introduced in Bengal during the 18th century, by King (Raja) Krishnachandra of Navadvipa and gained popularity with the Bengali elite; wealthy landowners began patronizing the festival on a grand scale. Along with Durga Puja, now - Kali Puja is the biggest goddess festival in Bengal. More: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kali_Puja
