Best Answer

Ravana was the King of SriLanka.

He was a great Vedic Scholar but since he kidnapped Sita because of the insult of his sister by Lakshmana, he is disrespected and condemned.

Every year his effigies are burnt to remember the victory of Virtue over the Evil.

But in certain parts of South India Ravana is still worshipped because of his being a great Sanskrit and Vedic Scholar
