Pushpanjali 2015 highlights cultural diversity of East Indian Community –as Guyanese celebrate the origin of their Indian roots

May 6, 2015

PUSHPANJALI 2015 was bigger and better than previous years as our East Indian Guyanese brothers and sisters celebrated their 177 years since arrival to the homeland.

Apart from the distinguished guests, many, not just Guyanese of Indian extract, joined in the celebration of Indian Arrival Day, as they gathered at the Indian Monument Garden to witness an array of Indian cultural activities.

Some of the distinguished guests who were present at the ceremony yesterday: from left, Mr. Hemraj Kissoon, Dr. Yesu Persaud , Mr. Ashook Ramsaran and United States Charge d’Affaires, Brian Hunt

Featured during the programme were cultural dances, songs, presentations and other activities which were all presented by the Indian Commemoration Trust in honour of the 177th Anniversary of the arrival of Indians to this country.
Speaking during the ceremony, prominent businessman, Dr.Yesu Persaud underscored the fact that “this is a special day for us, as this generation owes our foreparents gratitude for coming to this country,”as he highlighted the difficulties faced during their travels to the land now called Guyana.
In closing, Dr. Persaud urged the young generation to build on what their ancestors have accomplished and also live together in unity and peace.
Meanwhile, giving the feature address, President of the Global Organisation for People of Indian Origin (GOPIO), Ashook Ramsaran, took the audience back in time explaining the journey of our East Indian brothers and sisters from India in 1838.He noted that: “The perseverance of our people has been remarkable,because our ancestors came here by choice; therefore, we must pay homage to those who came before from India.”
Mr. Ramsaran also underscored the fact that we are a single nation, so we must be entitled to mutual benefits to unify the people of Guyana and ensure that we live as one.
Therefore, he stated that he joins with the entire Guyanese population in celebrating the 177th anniversary of the arrivals of East Indians to this country and also acknowledge the fact that we must move forward and work as one nation to build this country further.

It is nice to see the U.S. ambassador engaging with our people.

He seems to be a more engaging and balanced ambassador who will work with all political parties.
