This Diwali With NGOs In Rajasthan: Diwali is a five-day-long festival celebrated by every Indian all around the globe. It is all about lights, joy, and happiness. Diwali is one of the most exuberant and spirited festivals when everyone buys gifts for themselves and their loved ones. The preparation starts preceding the festival like house cleaning, buying home decor, and revamping every corner of your home.
This Diwali won’t be any like previous years due to pandemic making it difficult to go out and shop. Though many online shopping platforms have come up with the best offers for the rescue. Also, the pandemic has shaken up the entire economy of the country. It made life tough for the poorest sections of society, many low-income families living in shanty areas lost their daily wages, and many others depending on either government support or private charity.
Therefore, let’s celebrate this Diwali by aiding the poor and needy people. Several NGOs in Rajasthan regularly enhance the lives of the less fortunate by donating and helping them financially.
