The Indian Association of Lesotho (IAL) will on August 15, 2023 celebrate India’s Independence Day in Maseru.
IAL president Biju Abraham Korah said in a statement today that the festivities will be held at Busy Bee English Medium School in Maseru West.
He said IAL was established in 1988 with the primary purpose of providing a cultural and educational platform for the Indian Diaspora in Lesotho.
“The association has been working selflessly to create, foster and promote co-operation, collaboration and social and cultural integration between the peoples of the Kingdom of Lesotho and the Republic of India,” he added.
IAL is a registered non-profit, non-partisan, non-sectarian organisation.
India celebrates Independence Day annually on August 15 as a public holiday in India commemorating the nation’s independence from the United Kingdom on August 15, 1947.
