Why is Dussehra Celebrated in India

There are two reasons for celebrating the Dussehra or Vijyadashami in India. It revolves around the story of the two Hindu Gods.

One is the story of Rama, who is the avatar of Lord Vishnu. He wanted to save his wife Sita from the 10-headed demon Ravana. Then, he marched the war against Ravana to save his wife. The triumph of Rama over the Ravana is celebrated as Dussehra or Vijayadashami in North India by burning the demon’s effigies. And the people symbolize this victory of good against evil.

Also, there is another story that goes around Goddess Durga, who is the God of War and Motherhood. She was created to kill the Mahishasura, who is an arrogant demon. He got a blessing from the Lord Bhrama that he shouldn’t killed by the humans, Gods, or any Asura. Due to bad luck, he miscalculated women and thought they were weak people. So the woman God Durga got victory over the Mahishasura. This auspicious day is celebrated as Vijayadashami or Ayudha Pooja in South India.
