According to legends and Hindu epic book- “Geeta” Rama was banished from his home in Ayodhaya by his stepmother. He was joined by his wife and younger brother Lakshman in his banishment. In their 14 years of exile, Sita was kidnapped by the demon king Ravana but Rama didn’t fail in rescuing her by defeating the evil king. When they returned to Ayodhaya after exile, Rama was crowned as King and they all were joyfully welcomed with lighted diyas and that is why this tradition is still followed by all the Hindus.
