PM Modi’s Swadeshi call sparks surge in diya demand for Diwali
Diwali is lighting up in more ways than one this year, and it’s all thanks to Modi’s call for Swadeshi! Potters across India are seeing an explosion in demand for traditional clay diyas, as people rush to buy Indian-made products ahead of the festival.
Potters are feeling the love. Orders are pouring in, and they’re gearing up for a Diwali unlike any other. “This will be a good one for us,” one potter said, as they prepare for a bumper season. With PM Modi urging Indians to embrace Swadeshi, local artisans are finally getting the recognition and support they deserve.
But hold up—there’s confusion over Diwali’s exact date this year. The Amavasya Tithi falls between October 20 and 21, leaving people scratching their heads over when to celebrate.
