Reported by FM Bharat.
Akya observes Dussehra (Vijayadashami) on Tuesday, 20 October 2026, along with the rest of Rajasthan.
The principal temple recorded for Amet mandal is Sambodhi Upvan. No temple of this dedication is on record within Akya itself.
Ramlila through the nine nights and the burning of Ravana, Meghnad and Kumbhakarna effigies on Dussehra evening. Kullu Dussehra in Himachal begins on Vijayadashami and runs a week, with village deities carried to Dhalpur maidan.
The regional form observed across North India. How any one household or village keeps it varies, and is not something recorded here.
By population, Akya ranks #36 of 91 villages in Amet mandal.
