Dussehra is a ten days and nine nights long Hindu festival. It marks the victory of goodness over evil power such as victory of Rama over Ravana and victory of Durga over Mahishasura. Dussehra is a major Indian festival celebrated by the Hindu community. Celebrated on the tenth day of Hindu calendar month of Ashvin it also marks the end of Navratri festivities. The festival commemorates victory of Lord Rama over Ravana; hence it symbolizes the triumph of good over evil.
It sends a message that in a battle of right and wrong, righteousness always triumphs victorious. The festival of Dussehra is mostly celebrated outside the houses, in community places, in form of fairs ranging from small to large. The main attraction of fair is a large effigy of Ravana, which is dramatically burned down to ashes by a member of public depicting Lord Rama. The crowd bursts into cheer shouting “Jai Shree Ram”.
Answer:
As mentioned above, the characteristic chemical property of a metal atom is to lose one or more of its electrons to form a positive ion. However, certain metals lose electrons much more readily than others. In particular, cesium (Cs) can give up its valence electron more easily than can lithium (Li).
