This year’s festivities will also include performances by popular singers and special lighting displays to highlight the government’s guarantee schemes.
Minister K Venkatesh emphasised the importance of making this year’s Dussehra a spectacular event, instructing officials to expedite preparations. The main attraction of Dussehra celebrations should be carried out in a manner that draws in larger crowds.
