Happy Dussehra 2023: Effigies of Ravan, Meghnath and Kumbhkaran.
The festival of Dussehra marks the victory of good over evil. It also signals the end of Navratri festivities. Vijayadashami also marks the 10th day of the Shardiya Navratri and people across the country burn effigies of Ravana along with his son Meghnath and brother Kumbhkaran. The day also marks the end of the five-day festivities of Durga Puja. On this day, the idols of Goddess Durga are immersed in water bodies. In the south, Dasara is celebrated as victory of Goddess Chamundeshwari over the demon form Mahishasura.
