Dussehra 2022: Date, Time And Significance Of Dashami; 5 Sweets To Celebrate The Festival

We are well into the festive season of the year and Hindus across India are celebrating one of the major festivals - Navratri. Navratri coincides with the Bengali festival of Durga Puja, which is marked during the last four days of Navratri (from the sixth to the ninth day). This year, Navratri started on September 26, 2022 and will end today (on October 4, 2022). The next day is marked as Dussehra (or Vijaya Dashami by the Bengali community) that further leads to Diwali after 21 days.

Dussehra (or Vijaya Dashami) is marked with much enthusiasm all over the country. It signifies the victory of good over evil. In North India, people burn effigies of Ravana (Ravan Dahan) to celebrate the victory of Lord Rama - it is believed that setting fire to the effigies of mythological demon also extinguishes the devils within us. On the other hand, Bengalis mark Vijaya Dashami by immersing the idol of Goddess Durga - which signifies sending off the daughter back to her home, after a vacation.

Former India opener Aakash Chopra has suggested that Yashasvi Jaiswal is slightly ahead of Shubman Gill in the pecking order as captain Rohit Sharma's partner at the top in T20Is. Since making his debut last year, Jaiswal has been in stunning form in the shortest format of the game. Gill's form, on the other hand, has dipped since the ODI World Cup last year in India. With the T20 World Cup scheduled to be held later this year, Chopra feels Jaiswal will open the innings with Rohit during the tournament. "It's clear that Yashasvi Jaiswal has run ahead of Shubman Gill. Yashasvi is ahead in the two-horse race, Gill is lagging slightly behind. Gill was played in the first match, dropped in the second, and wasn't played in the third as well," Chopra said on his YouTube channel. Jaiswal helped India beat Afghanistan in the second T20I earlier this week, scoring a quickfire fifty. Considering his recent form across formats, Chopra emphasised that Jaiswal has ...
