Dussehra Celebration In School

Dussehra, a ten-day long festival is celebrated with great fervor across the country

. It is one of the most important Hindu festivals that signify victory of good over evil. In Northern India, this festival is widely celebrated and at various places Ramlila is enacted on the life of Lord Rama. After nine-day celebrations

of Navratri, on the tenth-day , the effigies of Ravana along with his brother Kumbhakarna and son Meghnad are burnt with a lot of fanfare. As per the belief, Lord Ram prayed to Goddess Durga for nine days and on the tenth day, he was successful in slaying Ravana. Also, on this day, tools, cattles, weapons

and books are worshiped as they represent knowledge and learning.

In some parts of North-East, Dussehra is celebrated by worshipping Goddess Durga and it is called as Durga Puja . Idols of Goddess Durga are worshipped for nine days and then on the tenth day, it is immersed into the sea by the devotees. On this occasion, several cultural programs are held at various

makeshift temples (public pandals), especially by Bengalis across India.

In metro cities, like Delhi and Mumbai, all these ceremonies and rituals have been amalgamated and everyone celebrates these festivals in their own way, the way they love. Even after this ceremonial blend, the cultural spirit stands out and makes its presence felt across India during the festival season.
