Why Is Dussehra Celebrated?
Dussehra, also known as Vijayadashami, is one of India's most cherished festivals. It symbolises the victory of good over evil and the triumph of righteousness.
In many parts of India, Dussehra marks Lord Rama's victory over Ravana. In other traditions, Vijayadashami celebrates Goddess Durga's victory over Mahishasura.
For families across India and Germany, the festival is a time for prayers, gratitude, new beginnings, and togetherness.
