BIAL-Dasara

To soak in the spirit of Dasara festivities, Bangalore International Airport Ltd (BIAL) employees have installed heritage Dasara gombe (dolls) at the Terminal Kerbside.

The employees took it upon themselves to celebrate the centuries old tradition of display of gombe during the Dasara season.

Travellers can view the dolls displayed on a stepped platform with nine tiers, signifying the duration of the festival.

The Dasara gombe will be on display at the Terminal Kerb until October 4. “This initiative is part of the airport’s commitment to preserving the culture and craftsmanship of the region,” said a BIAL spokesperson.
