The Indian community of Omdurman celebrated their New Year's evening on
4th November at the Indian club in Omdurman. Young brothers and
sisters of the community danced to their favourite Hindi film songs with
enthusiasm and energy. To greet them on this auspicious day was the Vice
Governor of Omdurman Yassein Ahmed Mohamed and the Chief of Omdurman Police
Yassir Al Kitiyabi. Charge d’Affairs of the Indian Embassy Subhash P Gupta
wished the Gujarati community a Very Happy Diwali and New Year. Dr.Anil Kumar
Mithani President of the Indian Community welcomed and congratulated the
community members. Vice Governor Yassein made an interesting observation that
both the Hijri New Year and Gujarati New Year coincided at the same time. This
was only the tip of the ice berg of the similarities of culture between India
and Sudan.
