Dussehra Fair Kota
The Dussehra Fair in Kota is one of India's grandest Dussehra celebrations, drawing lakhs of visitors to the banks of the Chambal River every October. The festival is renowned for its towering effigies of Ravana, Kumbhkarna, and Meghanada, among the tallest in the country, culminating in a spectacular burning ceremony after sunset. A sprawling mela runs alongside with rides, food stalls, and folk entertainment, making Kota's Dussehra a full-scale cultural event rather than just a religious occasion.
