New people need to learn everything from constructing bamboo structures to pasting paper. Like every year, the work of making effigies is going on at the Sanatan Dharm Sabha Hall in Kadbi Chowk.

Vijayadashami Festival The history of making Ravan is historic. It started 41 years ago. Dhyan Singh Thakur, professor at Kanpur, came to Nagpur in 1949 after partitioning India-Pakistan. He saw that Dussehra, the important festival of Sanatan Dharma, was celebrated here, but Ravana was not burned here. At that moment, Ravana’s combustion happened only in Delhi and North India. Here, Thakur has conceptualized Ravana Dahan. The Punjab Seva Samiti had shown plans for Ravan Dahan, but the biggest problem at that time was where to take the effigy of Ravana.

Later Hemraj Singh Binwar, who specializes in the creation of paper and bamboo artwork, was approached.
