Deepawali-Gujarat-www.vishvabhraman.com
Diwali is a major Indian festival, which comes in autumn. In Gujarat Diwali celebrations take on a number of distinct characteristics. It occurs in the second (dark) lunar fortnight (Krishna Paksha) of the month of Ashvin (Gujarati "Aaso") and the first (bright) fortnight (Shukla Paksha) of Kartika (Guj. "Kartik"). Aaso is the last month of the Gujarati calendar, and Kartik the first.
From Aaso vad Agyaras (11th day from full/no moon) to Dev Deepawali people light diyas (or decorative lights) to decorate their house. It is believed it protects them from evil spirits.
Diwali in Gujarat is also special because Gujarat observes at least five-day official holiday from the day of Diwali till Labh Pancham, which may get extended sometimes to seven and start early from the day of Bhai-beej
