Diwali is celebrated all over India with a great gusto and glee and by Indians abroad with equal enthusiasm
. I appreciate the commitment of these NRIs towards the values and traditions of their culture. Wherever they may be they do celebrate all the Indian festivals by performing due rituals in best possible manner. It is a trend in India to send Diwali sweets to relations and friends as a token of sweet exchanges. Earlier this was not a feasible for non resident Indians to send Diwali sweets to India or Diwali gifts from abroad, but it is possible now.
Certainly they could parcel Diwali sweets to India from their locations and it would have been delivered here somehow, but there were two restrictions which made it a futile affair. One it took too long to reach India and sweets were not as sweets by then. Second you can not expect Indian taste in foreign sweets. Let alone the huge cost of sending Diwali sweets to India but, when it comes to celebrations, you do need to take care of emotions. These were so strong the reasons that many of the Indians suspended the idea of sending Diwali sweets to India. They did send Diwali gifts to India but that was not a reasonable affair either.
Recently there have some good technological developments that have made our life quite easy and comfortable. Internet has developed at a great speed in India and so has developed online businesses. Today there is nothing that you can't buy online in India or from India. There are some good online gift portals which offer Diwali gifts and Diwali sweets to India, with free or reasonable shipping cost.
Many NRIs are sending Diwali Sweets to India online now. The biggest benefit of using Indian online gift portal is that they deliver some delicate items such as sweets, flowers, cakes and chocolates within acceptable time limit and save them from losing their taste and fragrance. Anyone can send Diwali gifts to India or Diwali sweets to India from any part of the world now. There are some really credible online gift portals which have been serving to international Indian community for many years now.
