NDP Diwali & Bandi Chhor Divas 2024: A Celebration of Light and Freedom
Diwali, the festival of lights, and Bandi Chhor Divas, the festival of liberation, are both celebrated with immense joy and enthusiasm in India. This year, both these festivals fall on the same day – October 26th, 2024, making it a double celebration for many!
Understanding the Significance:
Diwali, often called the “Festival of Lights”, symbolizes the victory of good over evil, light over darkness, and knowledge over ignorance. It's a time for families to come together, decorate their homes with diyas (clay lamps) and lights, burst firecrackers (though, let's be mindful of the environment!), and enjoy delicious sweets.
Bandi Chhor Divas, also known as "The Day of Liberation", commemorates the release of the sixth Sikh Guru, Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji, from imprisonment by Mughal Emperor Jahangir. This festival is a reminder of the triumph of freedom and justice, and it emphasizes the importance of fighting for our rights.
NDP and the Celebration:
For the National Democratic Party (NDP), these festivals hold special significance. They represent the core values of the party: hope, progress, and unity. Diwali symbolizes the party's vision for a brighter future for India, while Bandi Chhor Divas reflects its commitment to fighting for the freedom and rights of all citizens.

The NDP is planning a grand celebration for Diwali and Bandi Chhor Divas this year. Expect a vibrant mix of traditional rituals, cultural performances, and community events.
