Press Release Body: Dussehra is celebrated in various ways in different parts of
South Asia. In Bengal, the festival is celebrated as Kali Puja or Durga Puja, while
in Tamil Nadu, the festival incorporates worship of the goddesses Lakshmi,
Saraswati, and Shakti.

Some people feel that Dussehra and Dasara are not simply different transliterations
of the same word, but two different festivals.

Dasara is the festival marking end of Navratri and the immersion of Durga idols
which are worshipped for nine days prior to Dussehra. Dussehra is also the day when
many families start formal education of their kids.The Dasara celebrations in Mysore
are popular with tourists, and are conducted with great pomp.

On this day, people spend the day decorating the entrances of houses & shops with
flower studded strings called \'Torans\' (Floral Gateways).

At night, effigies of Ravana, Kumbhakaran and Meghanad are stuffed with firecrackers
and set alight. Children especially enjoy seeing this because of the beautiful
fireworks on the ground. The festival, which is thought of as the \"Victory of Good
over Evil\" and \"Return of Rama from Exile\" is celebrated in grand style. Because the
day is auspicious, people inaugurate new vehicles, machines, books, weapons and
tools by ceremonially asking god to bless the new items.
