Dussehra is one of the popular festivals in India, which is celebrated on the 10th day of the Shukla Paksha in the month of Ashwin. The date of this festival coincides with the 10th day after nine days of Navratri festival. It is also known as Vijayadashmi ('Vijay' meaning 'victory' and 'Dashmi meaning 'tenth day), as it is believed that it was on this day that Lord Rama killed the demon-king, Ravana and rescued his abducted wife - Sita. In other words, it signifies the triumph of good over evil.
