Q:

A: I am sure you mean Dasara. It is an Indian/ Hindu Holiday. Religious. With a lot of interesting stories behind the celebration. It is actually Dusserah. Word comes from 10 as it is the 10th day of the Moon. Also it is the end of a 10- day Festivity. Worship of the Goddess goes on for 9 days. Then on the 10th she is sent back to her World: the Goddess is immersed. In some parts of India, effigies of Demon King and his son and brother are burnt. This signifies victory of Good over Evil. I hope this helps.
