Detailed Solution

The purpose of the Mahanavami platform built by king Krishnadevaraya was to celebrate the festival of Dussehra. Mahanavami Dibba was a wonderful stone platform inside Hampi's royal enclosure. King Krishnadevaraya built it to mark his victory over Udaygiri. It had been the place from where the king and other members of the Vijayanagara empire celebrated the festival of Dussehra or Navratri and stood on the structure and watched processions pass. They watched war games like wrestling, sword fight competitions, aquatic sports, and army march-pasts competitions from the elevated Mahanavami Dibba.
