Diwali is an occasion that naturally brings everyone together to meet with family and friends.

The President commended CECA for organising such an event and he also appreciated their commitment and assistance towards Sri Lanka in a moment of darkness to light up the lives of underprivileged children during the pandemic and crisis situation.
