Temple in Dwarahat mandal

The principal temple recorded for Dwarahat mandal is Maa Dunagiri Temple. No temple of this dedication is on record within Faldwari itself.

Dussehra (Vijayadashami) in Uttarakhand

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.

Almora burns the whole clan, not just Ravana

Almora is the one place that burns the entire Ravana clan rather than Ravana alone — around thirty-three effigies, Meghnad and Kumbhakarna among them, built by neighbourhood committees and carried through the town with bands before the burning. Mohallas began adding their own figures from 1975. The Kumaoni Ramlila that runs beforehand is sung rather than spoken.
