Post the huge intense and bloody war, the king of Bushair won victory over the opponent. The separated head of the ruler of Kullu was brought to Sarahan and placed on the stone platform. The family members of raja of kullu and the people of his kingdom pleaded to return his head so that they could perform the last funeral rites. The ruler of Bushair laid three conditions before them before he would return the head - the land that was seized across the Sutlej would be retained, Kullu must promise to never again challenge its neighbour and the captured image of Lord Raghunath (the pattern Devta of Kullu) would not be returned. The defeated kingdom accepted all these terms and in return only asked the ruler of Bushair to celebrate the festival of Dussehra. This request was accepted and Dussehra has now become a major local festival. The image of Lord Raghunath was ceremoniously installed alongside that of Bhimakali. Tourism in Sarahan
