Vibrant glimpses of Deepawali celebrations lit up Raipur city, streets sparkled as people burst firecrackers, a young girl tenderly lit rows of clay Diyas, and devotees filled the air with devotion during the grand Gauri-Gaura procession held a day after Laxmi Puja. At the Jaitusao Matth, Mahant Ram Sundar Das performed Gau Puja on the occasion of Govardhan Puja, adding to the city’s spiritual fervor. The festival of lights truly illuminated Raipur with joy, devotion, and prosperity. (Pic by Manoj Dewangan)
