during diwali, people worship to which hindu goddess?

During Diwali, Hindus primarily worship Goddess Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, prosperity, and fortune. She is commonly venerated alongside Lord Ganesha, who is worshipped to remove obstacles and bless new beginnings. In many traditions, Lakshmi is honored as the main deity for wealth and well- being, while Ganesha is invited first to ensure a smooth and auspicious start to the celebrations. Additionally, some families also offer prayers to other deities such as Kubera (the god of riches) and Saraswati (goddess of knowledge and arts) depending on regional customs and personal family traditions.
