Ground report from Ganga Ghat ahead of PM Modi's visit | Varanasi

Dev Deepawali, literally translating into "Diwali of Gods" or "Festival of Lights of the Gods" is a huge celebration in Varanasi. On this day, the gods are believed to descend to Earth to bathe in the Ganges. The steps of all the ghats of Varanasi are decorated and covered in diyas. This year, Dev Deepavali falls on November 30, and one can expect a mesmerizing sight with hundreds of diyas twinkling on the ghats as rhythmic chants fill the air.
