The atmosphere is festive as tourists and locals celebrate Dasara, the autumnal equinox festival and public holiday. It’s the day in the Hindu legends when the goddess Chamundeshwari killed the demon Mahishasura and good triumphed over evil. Dasara is observed through special prayer meetings and food offerings to the gods at home or in temples, outdoor fairs, large parades and bonfires in the evening.
I watch my husband and our children as they celebrate. One day, I will have victory over him too.
