On Saturday 24 June, I attended the 16th Annual Festival of Chariots in Liverpool, a festival dedicated to celebrating the rich cultural history of the Indian Subcontinent. As one of the largest and longest running festivals in human history, the Festival of Chariots is a worldwide celebration that prides itself on the worthwhile promotion of peace and communal harmony. It was extraordinary to see such a wide range of cultures and peoples galvanised together in the name of such a great cause. With many attendees having never visited India before, I saw reflected in the faces of those attendees a genuine understanding and appreciation of India's rich cultural history, language and tradition. I would like to thank Arvind Baldeo for coordinating this festival. I also wish to say a special thanks to the attendees and all those whose actions were instrumental in the unprecedented success of the festival. I eagerly anticipate continuing to support Indian communities in the Liverpool electorate and look forward to witnessing the Festival of Chariots grow even further in the future.
