“To Hindus, Sikhs, Jains, and Buddhists celebrating in America and around the world — from the People’s House to yours, happy Diwali,” the US president said in a tweet.

US Vice President Kamala Harris also greeted everyone in India on Diwali in a video message.

UK Prime minister Boris Johnson also wished everyone in India Happy Diwali and Bandi Chhor Divas.

“Namaste, it’s Boris Johnson here, sending wishes on this year’s festival of lights. I hope that this Diwali and Bandi Chhor Divas for our Sikh friends are truly special. This time of the year is about getting together with family and friends and if think back to last November there’s no doubt we have come a long way,” the UK PM said in a video message.

“I want to once again say a huge thank you to Britain’s Hindus, Sikhs, Jains for everything you have done to support the vulnerable and help keep safe over the last eighteen months,” the UK PM added.

“This year the wheel of light is back up in Leicester, events are being held across the country and as you look forward to the celebrations and to feasting perhaps some delicious mithai(sweets), we can reflect on the powerful message at the heart of this festival of good triumphing over evil, light over darkness and knowledge over ignorance,” PM Johnson added.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau also joined in the celebration to greet Indians on the festive occasion.
