London Mehar Community Association organised an event in Feltham to honour Vimalji Bhai Odedara, President of the International Mehar Supreme Council for his hard work in strengthening the Mehar community. The event started with aarti and ended with the beautiful presentation of Garba.
After receiving the honour, Vimalji Bhai said, “I am trying that each member of the community should connect to each other with positive and progressive thoughts. We organised the Lirbai aai rath yatra in India. In 21 days, we reached 177 community villages in Saurashtra. We are focusing on better education along with cultural and spiritual involvement. I also visited Uganda and Dubai to meet our community members and tried to do everything possible to strengthen the community. Mr CB Patel is our patron. We get a lot of inspiration, guidance and support from him every time.”
Chief Guest C B Patel, Publisher and Editor-In-Chief of Asian Voice and Gujarat Samachar said, “Mehar community is known for its dedication, commitment and loyalty. The ways in which they preserve culture, heritage and language are extraordinary. Vimalji Bhai and his team are spreading social and cultural awareness. As the president of NCGO also he is doing big efforts for the Gujarati Diaspora in the UK.
The event was conducted by Dhirubhai Ghadvi and a vote of thanks was given by Sanjay Odedara and Shailesh Odedara.
