Dussehra (Vijayadashami) in Chhattisgarh

Bastar Dussehra runs about seventy-five days and is tied to Danteshwari rather than to the Ramayana — the longest observance of the festival anywhere.

The regional form observed across Bastar, Chhattisgarh. How any one household or village keeps it varies, and is not something recorded here.
