Mysuru Dasara in Karnataka

Nadahabba — the state festival. Bombe Habba doll steps at home; Mysuru Dasara is the public form, the Jamboo Savari procession on Vijayadashami carrying the Chamundeshwari idol on a decorated elephant.

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

Mysuru Dasara, the Nadahabba

Mysuru Dasara is Karnataka's Nadahabba, its state festival, kept for more than four centuries from the Vijayanagara period and onward through the Wadiyars. It closes on Vijayadashami with the Jamboo Savari, when the idol of Chamundeshwari is carried through the city in a golden howdah on the lead elephant, followed by cavalry, tableaux and folk troupes.
