For over 60 years, Much like many other towns and cities in the country, Faridabad has also celebrated Dushehra. In a procession or yatra or jaloos. Ram, Laxman and Hanuman go to the grounds where Ravan is killed and effigy burnt with much fan fare. The most unique feature of Faridabad Old Dushehra is the Hanuman ji. A family for the past three generations. Strict fasting and pooja for a whole week culminates in the person elaborately being painted in orange paint from head to toe. An extremely ornate and hugely heavy mukut is then placed on the head and remains for better part of the day in oppressive heat conditions. Dedication and reverence makes a person do that and earn the adulation of the entire city. Amazing display of tradition and belief. !!! Truly remarkable. Shared here is the picture of the current year.
