What is Diwali Quiz?

Which goddess is worshipped on the main night? What does Deepavali literally mean? Whose release do Sikhs celebrate? This Diwali quiz covers the five days, the Ramayana and Krishna stories, Bandi Chhor Divas, Mahavira’s moksha, Kali Puja, the sweets and the modern traditions — ten questions a round with instant answers.

Put it on the TV between Tambola rounds — the family arguments over question 7 are half the fun. The festival is marked by Hindus, Jains, Sikhs and Buddhists in different ways, and the questions honour all of them.
