Happy Dussehra to you. The best thing I like about Dussehra in the offices in India is when the office equipments such as computers, printers undergo the Ayudh Puja.!
:) My american colleague finds it difficult to digest this. In the olden days, weapons were used for Puja. I think in the current world, the computer is the weapon!
