Also known as Dasara or Dashain, and Vijyadashmi, the festival this year is being celebrated today with much enthusiasm and fervour.

The festival of Dusshera is observed throughout Nepal as well as all of India. Vijayadashmi, which commemorates the goddess Durga’s victory over the buffalo monster Mahishasura to restore and defend Dharma, marks the end of Durga Puja in several southern, eastern, north eastern, and southern Indian states. The idols of Durga, Saraswati, Laxmi, Ganesh, and Kartik are taken in a procession on this day and submerged in a body of water.

India’s northern, central, and western states observe Dussehra on this day to commemorate God Rama’s victory over Ravana.

Star India batter and former India captain Virat Kohli took to Twitter to wish Dusshera to his followers. “May the light always prevail. Happy Dussehra to you and your loved ones,” Kohli wrote.

While legendary Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar also took to his account to celebrate the victory of good over evil. He wrote: “Let’s come together to celebrate the victory of good over evil on the auspicious festival of Dussehra. May this day bring us happiness, good health & prosperity.”
