Dussehra is a festival of Hindus celebrated as a symbol of win over Evil by Good. It is an indication that an Evil even howsoever strong and intelligent ultimately gets defeated by Good.
The epics narrate this event as the day when Lord Rama killed Ravana in a battle running for many days that sacrificed thousands of lives on both sides. Rama was accompanied by his brother Lakshman, Hanuman, Sugreev and Ravana’s younger brother Vibhishan.
It all started with Rama along with his brother Lakshman and wife Sita left Ayodhya to stay in jungles for 14 years to fulfil his father Dasratha’s promise given to Rama’s step mother.
On his stays at various places in different regions, his beautiful wife is seen by Ravana. Ravana though was very intelligent and brave but destined to be killed by Rama, got attracted to Sita. He moves Rama and Lakshman away from Sita by unfair means and takes away Sita with her to his kingdom in Lanka.
