Raavana’s rage doused on Dussehra

Raavana’s rage doused on Dussehra

The victory of truth over evil was revisited with the Dussehra celebrations. In spite of unfavourable weather conditions, the Indian community witnessed the first-ever Raavana dahan in Auckland on 4th October. Maa Durga Temple Manukau and Humm Fm radio co-organised the event, which turned out be a big success. After the Ramlila and other cultural activities, Raavana’s effigy, filled with firecrackers, was lighted up. The rain and the cold winds could not douse the excitement of the people who enjoyed the festival with great enthusiasm till the end at Barry Curtis Park, Auckland.

On behalf of Maa Durga Temple Manukau, managing trustee, Vijay Gulati, thanked all the sponsors and committee members for funding, helping in the organization of the festival.
