Dussehra
20 - 22 October 2004
10 - 12 October 2005
More than 90 feet tall effigies of the demons Ravana, Kumbhakarana and the Meghnad are burnt on Dussehra day to symbolize the victory
of good over evil. The festival is celebrated all over the country but the Kota Dussehra is quite unique for it marks more than just
the beginning of a festive period. Villagers gather here dressed in multicoloured clothes to offer prayers to Lord Rama and to
celebrate his victory over Ravana. Rich in courtly splendour and age-old traditions, the Dussehra festival here is marked by a
glittering procession, which attracts thousands from the surrounding villages. Like all festivals in Rajasthan, it provides
a good opportunity to the traders to display their attractive wares to the rural and urban buyers.
