The lamp will continue to be lit for three evenings.

Diwali was commemorated for the first time at the United Nations, with the world body’s imposing headquarters in New York lit up especially on the occasion of the Indian festival of lights.
The facade of the U.N. headquarters was lit in bright hues and the words ‘Happy Diwali’, along with the image of a traditional diya, projected onto the building.
“Lighting up. @UN lights up for #Diwali for 1st time,” India’s Ambassador to the U.N. Syed Akbaruddin tweeted.
“Happy Diwali! @UN celebrates Diwali for 1st time. Thank you @UN_PGA for this initiative,” Mr. Akbaruddin said in another tweet, thanking General Assembly president Peter Thomson for the initiative.
He also tweeted a picture of passersby clicking photographs of the building as well as being themselves clicked against the illuminated U.N. headquarters in the background.
Mr. Thomson also tweeted a picture of the U.N. building lit up in bright blue for Diwali and said “Light over darkness, hope over despair, knowledge over ignorance, good over evil — the UN lights up. Happy Diwali!”
The U.N. Secretariat building will be lit up for Diwali for three days from October 29, 2016.
It is for the first time that the Indian festival of lights is celebrated at the world body after the U.N. General Assembly adopted a resolution in December, 2014 that acknowledged the “significance of Diwali”.
Noting that the festival is observed in many U.N. member states, the resolution had called on U.N. bodies to avoid holding meetings on Diwali, declaring it a no-meeting day.
From 2016 onwards, Diwali was made an optional holiday for the U.N., India’s Permanent Mission to the world body said in a special video message.

 इतिहास में पहली बार UN ने दिवाली मनायी है , वहाँ पूरी बिल्डिंग पर HAPPY DIWALI लिखकर दुनिया को संदेश दिया गया ।
पूरी दुनिया में भारत के इस प्रसिध और सबसे ज़्यादा मनाए जाने वाए त्योहार का संदेश गया है , सबसे बड़ी बात है ऐसा पहली बार हुआ है लेकिन भारत में कुछ लोग हैं जो हिन्दुओं से और उनके त्योहारों से बेहद नफ़रत करते हैं और किसी भी तरह इनको मिटा देना चाहते हैं ।
ये लोग हिन्दुओं के त्योहारों पर उपदेश की अलग अलग पट्टियाँ , विडीओ संदेश लेकर खड़े हो जाते हैं और ज्ञान पेलते हैं । उनको देखना चाहिए कि UN भी संघी हो गया है , UN भी मोदी भक्त हो गया है , UN भी हिन्दुओं को सम्मान देने लगा है ।
