This year, Mysuru Dasara is scheduled to be celebrated from October 15 to 24.
Celebrated as ”Nada Habba ” (state festival), Dasara festivities are a grand affair in the palace city of Mysuru every year, depicting Karnataka’s rich culture and traditions, coupled with reminiscence of royal pomp and glory.
