A Nepalese man makes a straw effigy of Ghanta Karna to burn during celebrations of the Hindu festival of “Gathemangal”, also known as Ghanta Karna, in Bhaktapur on the outskirts of Kathmandu, yesterday. The Nepalese festival, which celebrates the defeat of the mythical demon Ghanta Karna (“bell-ears”), is celebrated by performing the legendary drama in the streets.
