About Lighting Lamps to Inaugurate Events in India

One of the inaugural procedures in India for any public event is lighting of the lamp. The idea is to start the event on a positive note. Most people might agree that usually one person is sufficient to light a lamp/dia. But public events are about celebrities and personalities with gigantic egos. So where one hand would suffice, you have many. So you have to ensure that each hand holds a candle and the lamp has as many wicks as the number of hands that may set them alight. Then after its moment of glory, the poor lamp is set in a corner, ignored for the rest of the event.
