Diwali is one of the biggest festivals of Hindus. Every year Diwali is celebrated for 5 days continuously. It starts with Dhanteras. Holidays are declared in schools from this day itself. In some cities, holidays are declared before this.

At the same time, there are some states in the country where there is no holiday for Diwali. In some places, there are only nominal holidays.
