Mangaroo: Nagar keeps Indian culture alive

The an­nu­al Di­vali Na­gar re­mains an im­por­tant plat­form for pre­serv­ing In­di­an cul­ture, bring­ing gen­er­a­tions to­geth­er and al­low­ing the wider na­tion­al com­mu­ni­ty to ap­pre­ci­ate the con­tri­bu­tion of In­di­an her­itage to Trinidad and To­ba­go’s mul­ti­cul­tur­al so­ci­ety.

Na­tion­al Coun­cil of In­di­an Cul­ture (NCIC) pres­i­dent Su­ru­jdeo Man­ga­roo said the Na­gar was more than a venue for en­ter­tain­ment, food and shop­ping, de­scrib­ing it as a place where cul­ture was ex­pe­ri­enced and passed on to fu­ture gen­er­a­tions.
