Uttarakhand CM orders Chamoli village road completion in 3 months
Reported by The News Mill.
Gwala observes Dussehra (Vijayadashami) on Tuesday, 20 October 2026, along with the rest of Uttarakhand.
The principal temple recorded for Nandprayag mandal is Place of Shil tree, of which in September 2018 a figure of Naini Mata was formed. No temple of this dedication is on record within Gwala 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.
