Dussehra 2024: Grand Celebrations Unfold at Red Fort As India Gets In Festive Zone

Dussehra, a festival of immense significance in Sanatan Dharma, is celebrated with great enthusiasm across the country, and this year, the celebrations in Delhi promise to be particularly grand. The festivities will culminate today at the historic Red Fort, where President Droupadi Murmu and Prime Minister Narendra Modi are set to participate in the traditional Ramlila performance. As in previous years, thousands of devotees are expected to gather at the Red Fort grounds to witness the dramatic enactment of the epic battle between Lord Rama and the demon king Ravana. The highlight of the event will be the burning of effigies of Ravana, his brother Kumbhkarna, and his son Meghnada, symbolizing the victory of good over evil. This spectacular event not only showcases the rich cultural heritage of India but also serves as a reminder of the importance of dharma in everyday life. The atmosphere will be filled with excitement, devotion, and a sense of community as people come together to celebrate this time-honored tradition.
