Dussehra is one of the most celebrated festivals in the Northern Indian regions.

It is celebrated after the "Navaratri" or the "Durga Puja" celebration.This festival symbolises the victory of the good over evil,in the form of the Lord Rama as good and Ravana as evil or the Goddess Durga as good and Mahishasura as evil.

We burst firecrackers and burn big statues of the Ravana to celebrate the victory of the good over evil.

This is not just a religious festival it indirectly represents the moral values of the humanity in the form of the religion.
