For those who don't know, Diwali is the festival of lights celebrated in India and people put up lights and decorations in their houses to celebrate it. However, if someone in the family has passed away in the previous year, then it is customary not to put up a lot of lights and decorations out of respect for the deceased. This image is just meant to show how badly Covid has hit India in the last year.
