It’s another festival and I appear to be in the middle of it (better timing at last).
It’s something to do with Lord Rama’s victory over the demon king Ravana – good triumphs over evil, so it’s an easy excuse for a party.
The music is very loud, trucks and tuk-tuks overladen with speakers, plus the odd bloke with a drum, along with processions of happy people covered in paint powder (probably left over from Holi).
Even the traffic stops for it, that doesn’t happen often in India.
