GUYANA, October 26, 2011 (ncnguyana): Thousands of Guyanese lined up outside the Campbellsville Mandir and along the kitty seawall to witness the well-lit and designed vehicles with various depictions of Hindu Gods and Goddesses which formed part of the Guyana Hundu Dharmic Sabha’s annual Diwali motorcade last evening. Some 20 floats participated in the event which started in 1974 by the Sabha’s president, Reepu Daman Persaud, who wanted to make the festival greater than it was at the time because of its powerful significance. Thousands of Guyanese also gathered at the la Bonne intention community centre ground to enjoy the cultural presentations by various Indian groups and witness the highlight of the festival of Diwali, the motorcade.
