IT Colleagues,

Dussehra, also known as Vijayadashami (Sanskrit: विजयदशमी), Dasara, or Dashain, is celebrated after the end of  Navaratri, a 9-day ceremony to honor the triumph of good over evil. In some traditions, the holiday commemorates the victory of Lord Rama over the demon ten-headed Ravana and in others the success of the warrior Goddess Durga against the buffalo demon Mahishasura. It is a day to remember the values and virtues that guide us in our personal and professional lives. This year, Dussehra falls on Monday, October 23.

We wish you and your families a very happy and prosperous Dussehra. May you overcome all the obstacles and challenges that come your way!
