Grand Dushahra festival celebration began about 12 years ago in 1998 when Mr. Mangal Gupta (founder , Indo American Festival ) saw the culture gap that was felt by the Indian community. Mr. Gupta wanted every Indian/ Indian descendent child to know about the great epic of Ramayana & inculcate the virtue of victory of good over Evil in their hearts.  Now, after 12 successful years, the community feels good that someone did it when kids themselves ask their parents the story of Ravan & Ram after coming back from Dushahra & viewing Ravan dhahan. He envisioned and has been successful to make this event a free event so Kids can come & learn, enjoy and connect to the community. On Oct 17th 2010, the public is invited to join in in the celebration of the remarkable journey of Victory of Good over Evil at the Lake Pappiani park in Edison, NJ. The highlights of the festival being – burning of 25 ft effigies of Ravan, Meghnath & Kumbhkaran, Dazzling fireworks.  Spectacular Ramleela, Fair, Foods, Kids games, Cultural program, health checkup camp and a lot more. Mr. Mangal Gupta now envisions to build a Hanuman Mandir now and is in full force working towards the goal.
