While affluent countries decorate streets and homes with lights to celebrate the festivities, some 1.06 billion people worldwide continue to live without access to electricity, says the World Bank. India alone accounts for about one-third of the global deficit. South Asia is, however, making strides in wiring up, improving electrical access from 57 per cent to 80 per cent between 2000 and 2014.

Photonico is a website offering high-quality stock photos that celebrate Asian contemporary culture and heritage.
