Dussehra 2018: President Kovind, PM Modi lead celebrations at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan
Dussehra is celebrated every year across India with fervour to mark the victory of good over evil. Effigies of Ravana are burnt in every part of the country. It is said that Lord Rama killed Ravana to avenge the abduction of his wife Sita. According to mythology, Lord Rama was a righteous person and Ravana was a demon. In some parts of India, on this day idols of Goddess Durga are immersed, to mark the end of Navratri.
President Ram Nath Kovind and Prime Minister Narendra Modi will burn effigies of demon king Ravan, Meghnad and Kumbhakaran at the historic Ramlila Maidan in the heart of national capital.
