Ravana is better known and remembered as the demon king who kidnapped Sita whom Rama defeated and killed, in a battle fought at Lanka.
Ravana played his role as a villain, but it was that of a much-needed villain, that brought balance to the equation. No wonder there are many people in the world, who still worship him.
Dussehra might be a festival to celebrate the victory of good over evil, but it's only a minor part of Hindu mythology. Ravans was one of the most important characters ever in the scheme of things. He's seen mostly as a villain, but surely he's much more than that.
Since Ravana was one of the most learned scholars to have ever lived, Ram asked his brother Lakshman to sit beside the dying demon-king and learn from him important lessons in statecraft and diplomacy.
