Sample speech about Indian festivals

Respected president and all the dignitaries present here, good afternoon, my name is Sam and I would like to express my thoughts about Indian festivals.

First I would like to explain what is a festival. In simple words, a festival is a day or a period of celebration which is quite different from regular life and often the celebration is larger than life. Festivals bring positive changes to our routine life.

Further, I would like to explain different kinds of festivals. Generally, there are two types of festivals. They are national festivals and religious, cultural, or seasonal festivals.

Republic Day, Independence Day, and Mahatma Gandhi Jayanti are national festivals on the other hand Diwali, Dashehara, Gudhipadwa, Eid, Christmas, pateti are religious festivals.

India is a country with a diversity of religions, cultures, and geographical regions. So we have a lot of festivals. Hindus celebrate Diwali, Dashehara, Gudhipadwa, nag Panchami, Raksha Bandhan, and Makar Sankranti festivals. Christians celebrate Christmas, Muslim people celebrate Eid, Ramajan and Parasi people celebrate Pateti as their new year festival and Sikh people celebrate Gurunanak Jayanti also there are many seasonal festivals like Bihu, Pongal, Basant Panchami, and Harvest festival.

Each festival has a certain reason and ideology behind its celebration. Most of the festivals are being celebrated since ancient times and with the movement of the Sun to the North and South, the beginning of the new season are marked by the festivals. Diwali marks the period of the cold season and the completion of the harvest and people eat sweets with high calories to fight with cold.

All festivals have some reasons for their celebration and they have their own importance. The question arises why do we need festivals? The answer is simple and it is for a break from daily boring life and to follow our culture and religion which are going on for thousands of years.

Festivals bring happiness and joy which is necessary for human beings who live almost the same life throughout the year. Festivals make us ready to fight the weather and season change and value the environment around us. So many Indian festivals are related to the Environment such as Nagpanchami, Waghbaras, and many more.

Festivals like Diwali. Eid and Christmas strengthen the bond among people of varied religions as people of all religions celebrate them. They unite society and contribute in the increase of brotherhood and social harmony. People color and repair their houses, buy new clothes and gifts for others, and forget their worries and tensions.

Some of the festivals are much awaited throughout the year such as Diwali, Ganesh Festival, Christmas, and Eid, and people become optimistic and hopeful about life. There is a public holiday for every festival and people enjoy the day with their family, relatives, and friends.

I love festivals very much and my favorite festival is Diwali which is the festival of light. I become happy and enthusiastic about each festival and celebrate them with traditional zeal and zest.

So we can conclude that festivals are occasions for celebration and there are two kinds of festivals. They include national festivals and religious or seasonal festivals. They bring joy, happiness, hope, and peace to our lives.

Thank you very much for listening to me.
