India is a land of festivals. The harmony of different cultures and traditions is best experienced during festivals in the country. One can experience ‘Unity in diversity’ during Dussehra celebrations that take place in every state of the country. The festival is a triumph of good over evil and of light over darkness. Also known as Dasara, Vijayadashami, Durgotsav, the tenth day of Navratri is not only celebrated in India but also in Nepal, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka.
The day is devoted to celebrating the defeat of the demon king Ravana by Lord Rama. It is believed that Ravana was killed by Lord Rama on this day as revenge against the cruel act of kidnapping Goddess Sita by the demon king Ravana. The entire country, from North to South, dons a celebratory look. Whichever part of the country you are in you will experience a different Dussehra altogether.
