Dussehra

Dussehra, also known as Vijayadashami, is a major Hindu festival celebrated across India, symbolizing the victory of good over evil. It commemorates Lord Rama's triumph over the demon king Ravana, reflecting the victory of righteousness. The festival typically involves elaborate processions, cultural performances, and effigies of Ravana that are burned to symbolize the eradication of evil. Dussehra falls on the tenth day of the Hindu lunar calendar's month of Ashwin, usually in September or October. It serves as a reminder of the importance of virtue, justice, and moral strength in overcoming negative forces.
