Independence/Janmashtmi

Hi Friends

Last weekend we had a lovely time at the Beautiful Independence Day celebrations so kindly hosted by H.E. Ambassador Pradeep Kapur and his lovely family in their residence. We thank them and are ever grateful for their efforts in organising such lovely events for the communtiy.

After that we had the Janmashtmi day celebrations in the temple, with bhajans and celebrations as well as prasad for everyone. The organisation was splendid and everyone had a great time. I am putting up some photos for everyone to enjoy. Also i remind everyone that if you do want to put some of your own photos up please send them to bharat@seleccciones.cl so that i can upload them to our site.
