Met
aphorically, came alive the demonic battle in the spirit of the festival when the Indian community fought a case against the New Jersey Township Council. Still, the celebrations continued amidst the Dot Buster gang looking to terrorise the Indian community in NJ. Several restrictions were settled upon in 1997, when Indians won the case and the judge supported the constitutional rights of Navratri in the historical landmark ruling. This day surely would have been celebrated as Vijaydashmi by the expatriates to the melody of Chitra Divakaruni’s poem true to Garba’s adaptation in the western arena, the excerpts of which go something like this:

and the old women singing of Krishna
and the milkmaids,
Th eir high keening is an electric net
pulling us in, girls
who have never seen the old land.
Th is October night
we have shed our jeans
for long red skirts, pulled back
permed hair in plaits…
Our hips
move like water to the drums.
Th in as Hibiscus petals, our skirts
swirl up as we swing and turn.”
