Hundreds of community members carried out a glorious procession earlier this morning, with the active participation of kids and youth of community. Many kids were dressed in the attire of Lord Krishna and Goddess Laxmi while some elderly people were dressed like ‘Jhule Lal’, the patron saint of Sindhis.

The community members also distributed boiled rice with peas as ‘prasad’. The procession concluded, Sindhi Dharamshala at Kamlawadi and was followed by community feast ‘langar’.
