About Navaratri : Navratri is a festival dedicated to the worship
of the Hindu deity Durga. The word Navaratri means 'nine nights' in
Sanskrit, nava meaning nine and ratri meaning nights.During these nine
nights and ten days, nine forms of Devi are worshipped. The tenth day is
commonly referred to as Vijayadashami or "Dussehra" (also spelled
Dasera). Navaratri is an important major festival and is celebrated all
over India and Nepal. Diwali the festival of lights is celebrated twenty
days after Dasera. Though there are in total five types of Navaratri
that come in a year, Sharad Navaratri is the most popular one. Hence,
the term Navaratri is being used for Sharada Navaratri here. [source : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navratri]
