Dussehra, also known as Vijayadashami, is one of the most significant Hindu festivals in India and it will be celebrated on October 2 this year. It marks the victory of good over evil and is celebrated in diverse ways across the country.

It commemorates Lord Rama's victory over the demon king Ravana, symbolizing the triumph of truth and righteousness over arrogance and evil. Effigy burning of Ravana, Meghnad, and Kumbhkaran is a popular tradition in many parts of India.
The festival also inspires people to conquer their inner evils like anger, greed, pride, and jealousy, and to uphold the values of truth, virtue, and righteousness.
