Happy Dussehra 2025: Dussehra, also known as Vijayadashami, marks the end of Sharadiya Navratri in India. The festival celebrates the triumph of good over evil, symbolising Lord Rama’s victory over Ravana
and Goddess Durga’s triumph over Mahishasura.In Hindu mythology, Ravana, the king of Lanka, abducted Sita, the wife of Lord Rama, while they were in exile for 14 years. To rescue her, Rama fought alongside Lakshmana, Hanuman, and the Vanar Sena. On the tenth day, Lord Rama triumphed over Ravana, symbolising the victory of good over evil.Dussehra takes on a variety of cultural expressions across the country, shaped by numerous regional rituals and performances. In northern and western India, the festival features lively Ramlila performances reenacting the Ramayana, concluding with Rama defeating Ravana. This is followed by Ravana Dahan, when effigies of Ravana, Meghanada, and his brother Kumbhakarna, filled with firecrackers, are set alight at dusk to symbolise the triumph of good over evil.In Himachal Pradesh, the Kullu Valley hosts the Kullu Dussehra festival. Rather than burning effigies of Ravana, local deities are carried through the town in a grand procession. Lord Raghunath, a regional incarnation of Rama, is celebrated as the main deity, while numerous other temple gods are also worshipped throughout the week-long fair. On the final day, a bonfire of dry branches is lit to symbolise the burning of Lanka, recalling the Ramayana story in which Hanuman sets the island ablaze with his tail.In West Bengal, Durga Puja concludes on the day of Vijaydashami, and festivities end with the immersion of Durga idols, known as Durga Visarjan, symbolising the goddess’s return to her divine abode.This year, Dussehra will be celebrated on Thursday, October 2.
